What happens to the speed of light when it is refracted?
The speed of light slows down.
Which colour bends the most when white light is passed through a prism?
The violet colour will be refracted the most, it has a shorter wave length and a higher frequency. The red light will be refracted the least, with its longer wave length and lower frequency.
What happens to light when it strikes glass?
it just gets refracted
What happens when light travels through a pair of eyeglasses?
It is refracted
Why cant you see visible light to see molecules?
In order to "see" something with eyes, the object must be longer than the light wave refracted from it. Molecules are too small to be refracted.
What is happens when light is refracted by matter?
the light bends.
Why do refracted objects bend?
The light acts as a wave, and the wave accelerates differentially at the border.

What happens to light when a rainbow forms?
It is refracted through raindrops.

Do electromagnetic waves have too much energy to be refracted?
No. Light is an example of an electromagnetic wave.

What happens when light is refracted through water from air?
The light will bend as it passes through.
How is refracted?
The refraction of light means that although light travels in straight lines, when it moves from one substance into another, it can change direction. This happens because the wave changes speed as it travels between different types of materials.As a light wave travelsbetween diffrent clear substances, the light wave bends. When light passes one substance to another, the light changes direction.
Can sound be refracted?
yes, sound is a wave. waves can be refracted.
