What is the distance from the through of a wave to the adjacent trough?
it is called wavelength
What is caused when light bends as it passes through a material?
Light does not bend as it passes through a material. It bends when it passes from one material to another. This is called refraction. Light can also be dispersed, that is separated into its different colours, if it is refracted enough.
What is the length of one cycle of oscillation?
In physics the distance is called wavelength. Period is the time it takes for one wavelength of wave to pass through a given point.
When a wave changes its speed and wavelength to go into a different materials this is called?
refraction :)
A material through which nearly all light passes is?
A material through which nearly all light passes is called a transparent material.

A material through which nearly all light passes is called a transparent material.
A material that does not let light pass through is called?
An opaque material.
The bending of light as it passes from one material to a different material is called?
absorption
The material through which a wave travels is?
The material through which a wave travels is called the medium.
Which object or material reflects infrared rays?
All materials will reflect, absorb and transmit (allow to pass through) electromagnetic radiation. This is called the Transmit/Reflect (T/R) ratio and it will vary for a material based on the wavelength of the incident radiation. IR radiation does not transmit through most materials. It is absorbed/reflected. Metalized Mylar has a small transmit/reflect ratio.
The material through which a wave travels is called?
Medium
What is the material through which a wave travels is called the?
a medium
The distance between two successive peaks on a wave is its?
The distance between successive identical parts of a wave is called the wave length.
