What other objects can make refraction happen refraction happen?
Other than what??? Refraction will happen any time light passes from one material to another.
What will happen to the object that is denser and less dense in water when immersed in water?
If it is less dense, it will float If it is denser, it will sink.
When does total internal refraction happen?
Total internal refraction happens when a light ray travel from a lighter medium to a denser medium. Ex. A light ray passing through a Prism.
Are there three things that can happen when light travels from one material to another?
Reflect Refract Transmit
What will happen when a cold material interacts with a hot material?
The heat will transfer from the hot material to the cold material. Heat tends to go where it is not.
What happen to a bullet shoot into the air?
It travels through the air, acted on by friction and gravity, until it encounters another material.
What would happen if you pack more mass into a certain volume?
this is the concept of density. the more mass contained in a certain volume, the denser the material (1 cubic cm of lead is denser than 1 cubic cm of water) Density=mass/volume
Why can't you see through opaque material?
In order for a material to be transparent (see-through), the light energy that impacts the material must be transmitted through the material and "released" on the other side unchanged. In order for this to happen, the molecules of the material must vibrate at the frequency of the light energy in such a way that the energy is not changed into another form - ie. the energy is not absorbed and used to heat the material, nor is the energy reflected off the surface. Opaque materials' molecules keep the energy or reflect it back, but don't pass it through.

What would happen to an object if it got placed in a denser liquid?
It would float.

Total internal refraction happens when a light ray travel from a lighter medium to a denser medium. Ex. A light ray passing through a Prism.
What energy is needed to change a material from a liquid to a gas?
Usually heat is needed. but this can happen through osmosis as well.

What happen to material that passes through the digestive system without being digested and absorbed?
It comes out the other end.
What would happen to aquatic organism if solid water were denser than liquid water?
