What else can I help you with?
How will you compare prism to raindrops?
Light is refracted and reflected by a (glass) prism Light is refracted and reflected by a raindrop
Is light reflected or refracted when it passes through a transparent medium?
Light can be both reflected and refracted when it passes through a transparent medium. Reflection occurs when light bounces off the surface of the medium, while refraction happens when light changes direction as it moves through the medium.
When light travels through a pair of eyeglasses is it reflected or refracted?
Refracted. Light passing through is refracted, light bouncing off of is reflected.
Is the red light reflected or refracted through a prism?
The red light is refracted as it passes through a prism. The different colors of light are refracted at slightly different angles due to their differing wavelengths, causing them to separate and create a rainbow effect.
What three things can happen to light?
Light can be reflected off a surface, refracted through a medium, or absorbed by a material.
How do the properties of a material affect the way light is refracted vs reflected?
The properties of a material, such as its density and refractive index, affect how light is refracted and reflected. When light passes through a material with a different density or refractive index, it can change direction (refraction) or bounce off the surface (reflection). The angle at which light enters the material also plays a role in how it is refracted or reflected.
When light goes through a glass window the light is primarily?
When light goes through a glass window, it is primarily transmitted, refracted, and reflected. Glass allows most of the light to pass through (transmitted), while some of the light can be bent (refracted) as it enters and exits the glass. Additionally, a small portion of the light can be reflected off the surface of the glass.
What is the difference between refracted light and reflected light?
Refraction is the change in direction caused by a speed differential as light travels through different mediums, or temperature/pressure gradients. Reflection is light directly hitting an object and exiting at the same angle at which it hit.
When light is reflected or refracted it does what?
It bounces in a different direction
What happens to light if it is neither reflected nor refracted?
If light is neither reflected nor refracted, it will be absorbed by the object it encounters. This absorption of light energy can result in the object heating up.
What happens to light if it is not reflected off an object?
If light is not reflected off an object, it can be absorbed by the object, transmitted through it, or refracted within it. The specific interaction will depend on the properties of the object and the nature of the light.
What is an example of an everyday object that does not work due to refracted light a-camera c- microscope b-telescope d-mirror c-c?
d, the mirror (it works by reflected light).
