The word is refraction. It happens when light rays pass from one material to another.

A word that starts with an R that describes you is responsible.
The only way to determine between R and S isomers is by using a polarimeter and measuring the direction of bending of the light. R isomers will bend it clockwise, and S isomers will bend it counter-clockwise.
A prism demonstrates the principle of refraction. Refraction occurs when light passes through the prism, bending as it moves from one medium (air) into another (the glass of the prism) due to a change in speed. This bending of light causes the different wavelengths (colors) to spread out, resulting in the dispersion of white light into its constituent colors.
The difference in refractive index of different media affects the bending of light! The density of the medium also plays a key role in it! As the density changes the speed of the light also changes! The extent up to which light bends (refracts) is purely based on the refractive index of that particular medium (sin i/sin r)! If the angle of incidence of the light is is greater than the threshold value ie., the critical angle light gets totally reflected into the medium else light gets refracted! Critical angle varies for each medium!
Every bending mechanism gets governed by the simple bending equation M/I=F/y=E/R
Ursine describes a bear. Also ursiform or ursoid. I guess they all sound as though they could begine with R.

There are no ocean names starting with "R" - there is a sea, the 'Red Sea'.
