What does less dense and denser medium mean?
Denser mediums when considering the speed of light are materials like liquid water, gases and plasmas under extreme pressure, such as are found in Jupiter and the sun
Do winds blow toward less dense or denser areas?
Low dense
Region where the medium is crowded and dense in a compressional wave?
Region where the medium is crowded and dense in a Congressional waves?
Is bromine gas denser or less dense than air?
yes
Which is denser the lithosphere or asthenosphere?
The asthenosphere is more dense than the lithosphere.
When a waves moves from a less dense medium to a denser one most of the wave energy is refracted?
reflected
When a wave passes from a less dense medium to a denser one most of the wave energy is?
When a wave passes from a less dense to a denser medium, most of the wave energy is reflected back into the less dense medium.
When a waves moves from a dense medium to a less dense medium most of the wave energy is?
refracted
When a wave moves from a dense medium to a less dense medium most of the wave energy is?
Most of the wave energy is reflected back into the denser medium when a wave moves from a dense medium to a less dense medium.

When a wave passes from a less dense medium to a denser one, most of the wave energy is answer is reflected FALSE
What is a refracted wave?
It means that the wave changes direction when it passes from one medium to another - for example, from air to water, or from denser air to less dense air.
What happens to a ray of light when it travels from a dense medium to a less dense medium?
-- Its speed becomes less in the denser medium. -- Its wavelength becomes greater in the denser medium. -- If its direction is not perpendicular to the boundary between the media, then its path in the denser medium is closer to the perpendicular. (This is 'refraction'.)
Why is white light dispersed when it pases from one medium to anonther?
a light ray is refracted when it passes from one medium to another at an angle and its speed changes. at the interface , it is bent in one direction if the material enters in denser and in the other direction if less dense.
What is Optical denser medium?
An optical denser medium refers to a material with a higher refractive index compared to the surrounding medium. This causes light to change direction when it passes from one medium to another, resulting in effects like refraction and total internal reflection. Examples of optical denser mediums include glass and water.
Which medium is most dense glass water or diamond?
Diamond, because it refracted the light the most.
