Do you need refraction for glasses an cameras etc?
You need refraction for increasing or decreasing the size of an image. We can take x-ray images just fine, and we don't have anything that will refract x-rays.
What is a fast ray?
A ray with low index of refraction and greater velocity.
How do you explain that the pencil appears broken in the glass of water?
A ray of light changes direction when it gets out of the water, and into the air. This is called "refraction".A ray of light changes direction when it gets out of the water, and into the air.

What are the terms related to refraction of light?
terms realated to refraction of light are * interface * incident ray * refracted ray * point of incidence *normal *angle of incidence * angle of refraction *angle of deviation
Why does the light ray bend?
due to the phenomenon of refraction .
What happens when a ray of light is traveling from a low index of refraction to a high index of refraction?
The ray is diffracted so that its path moves closer to the normal at the point of incidence.
What is refraction ray?
A refracted ray passes through the medium, at a different angle to the normal than the incident ray. by Ronan Lavery
What are the similarities of reflection and refraction?
REFLECTION: IF a light ray in incident on a surface if it bring back to same medium is called reflection REFRACTION: IF a light ray in incident on a surface and going to another medium is called reflection and there is a a law for refraction that is SNELL'S LAW
What is the angle between refracted ray and the normal?
Angle of refraction
Which property of light is illustrated when the ray enters the pond?
refraction
How do you transport a ray from one place to another?
Reflection or refraction.
What is the ray diagram of light refraction in air and glass?
A prism
