Reflection is for the light rays to bounce, and refraction is for the light rays to bend. maybe not equally, but enough to bend or bounce.
reflection is when it is reflected; it bounces of the surface while refraction is when it is bent but not reflected
Refraction occurs when light changes speed and direction as it passes from one medium to another, such as from air to water. Reflection, on the other hand, is when light bounces off the surface of a material, like a mirror, and changes direction. Refraction involves a change in speed and direction, while reflection involves a change in direction only.
The amount of refraction that occurs at the interface between two materials depends on the difference in their refractive indices. A greater difference in refractive indices between two materials will result in a larger amount of refraction.
The index of refraction affects the reflection properties of a mirror by determining how much light is reflected and how much is transmitted through the mirror. A higher index of refraction results in more light being reflected, while a lower index of refraction allows more light to pass through the mirror.
the difference is a rarefaction needs vibration i believe i'mnot sure
No, the greater the change in speed of light when it enters a new medium, the more it tends to be reflected at the interface between the two mediums. This reflection is known as refraction, and the angle of refraction is determined by the change in speed of light.
In reflection the light bounces bach; in refraction the light passes through, but is bent at the interface.
the difference is transmission occur in same medium,but refraction occurs whn 2 medias are there,its actually bending of light at interface of 2 medias

reFRACtion There isn't a good nmeonic or the like to remember the difference between refraction, reflection and diffraction. You just have to learn it.
