Best Answer

Refraction.

(I'm giving you a pass on the wording of the question. A wave always crosses the
boundary between two media at some angle. The angle really should have been
described in better detail.)

Refraction.


The index of refraction for a vacuum is?

the index of refraction essentially compares the velocity of a wave in 2 different medium to the calculate the angle with which the wave will diverge from its original path, so unless u give the other medium your wave is entering the vacuum from the question is nonsensical, hopefully this helped u.

What is the difference between rarefaction and refraction?

Refraction occurs when a wave crosses a boundary from one medium to another. A wave entering a medium at an angle will change direction.Diffraction refers to the "bending of waves around an edge" of an object. Diffraction depends on the size of the object relative to the wavelength of the wave.bestfahadali@yahoo.com
