Why diffraction occur?
Diffraction example: you run or bounce into somthing and, the wave goes around the object. This is called diffraction.
When does maximum diffraction occur?
When gap size is equal to wavelength
Why does diffraction not occur when light passes through a window?
The window is too wide (relative to the wavelength of light)
What is the bending of waves around the edge of a barrier called?
Diffraction is the bending of waves around an obstacle under specific circumstances.
Which term describes the bending of a wave around an object?
"Diffraction" does.

Does diffraction occur when waves bounce around the edge of a barrier?
Yes, i am sorry if I'm wrong don't take my word for it

Which type of waves are combination waves that occur at the boundary between two media?
Surface Waves
What is the bending of waves as it passes at an angle from one medium to another?
Diffraction.
What is the principles of x ray diffraction?
The idea is that, due to the small wavelength of X-rays, atoms can serve as a diffraction grid - causing diffraction patterns. (If you don't know about diffraction, I suggest you search in the questions for "diffraction", or ask a separate question for diffraction.) Crystals are good for this, because of their regular structure.
Can you see diffraction in water?
Diffraction can be observed in any medium.
How many classes of diffraction?
fresnel diffraction and fraunhoffer diffractions
When a moves through an opening in a barrier it?
Bends and spreads out.When waves of any kind, sound, light electromagnetic radiation hit a gap in a barrier that is on the same scale as the wavelength then diffraction will occur. Diffraction is the bending of the wave and this appears as circular waves when we observe this effect with water.A common diffraction grating can be seen on a CD or DVD. The light spreads and we see this as different colours.
