What happend to rays of light when they are refracted by a convex lens?
Now suppose that the rays of light are traveling through the focal point on the way to the lens. These rays of light will refract when they enter the lens and refract when they leave the lens. As the light rays enter into the more dense lens material, they refract towards the normal; and as they exit into the less dense air, they refract away from the normal. These specific rays will exit the lens traveling parallel to the principal axis.
When light rays enter a medium at an angle they?
The light rays will refract towards the normal of the medium and emerge out at the same angle.
What is the force acting perpendicular to a certain serface area?
Normal Force
Why does light that is normal to a refracting surface not get refracted?
Because the angle of refraction depends (among other things) on the difference between the angle of incidence and the normal. Therefore, if if the angle of incidence is equal to 90 degrees (normal), then the angle of refraction is zero. This is the reason why images, when viewed straight-on through a window, do not appear distorted. Or, think about it like this: If light was refracted when normally incident, which way would it refract?
What happens to a ray of light that slows down when it hits a new medium at an angle?
The change in speed causes the light to bend. If it is travelling from an optically dencer to an optically rarer medium the ray will bend away from the normal. But if it is travelling from an optically rarer to an optically denser medium then it will bend towards the normal.

Why does a swimming pool look not as deep as it actually is?
The rays of light refract from water to the air so they refract away from the normal and this means that the bottom of the pool seems less deep than it is.
Compare and contrast a cold wave and a heat wave?
they are both can formed by the same high pressure system . the heat waves are extended periods of above-normal temperatures . but the cold wave is an extended periods of below-normal temperatures .
When light rays enter a medium at an angle they?
The light rays will refract towards the normal of the medium and emerge out at the same angle.
Compare simple media with differential media?
Differential media or selective media is an agar that has certain nutrient to grow certain microbes. Simple media is an agar that has simple sugars that many normal microbes thrive in.
How does a blackberry compare to a normal cellphone?
It has internet.
I am 62 with a testosterone level of 132. How does that compare with normal. What are the consequences of low testosterone?

Is light refracted hen it goes through the lens in a normal eye?
That's how lenses work. If the light didn't refract, there would be no value to having a lens.
Do lenses refract light?
when light falls from air on lens it undergoes refraction as lens is denser than air light on entering lens move towards normal and is bent and while leaving moves away from normal
Why it is necessary to compare gases at S.T.P.?
It is normal to compare materials at standard conditions; at different conditions the comparison is not conclusive.
How do the number of protons and electrons compare in a normal atom?
They are equal
