How would you use refraction in a sentence?
The location of the fish in the water is not where it seems to be, due to the refraction of light in the water.
How is the refractive index of glass is to water is related with that of air is to water?
Each substance has an index of refraction. The index of refraction of water is about 1.3330 . The index of refraction of air at standard conditions is about 1.0003 . There is no such thing as the index of refraction of "water to air".
How do you explain that the pencil appears broken in the glass of water?
A ray of light changes direction when it gets out of the water, and into the air. This is called "refraction".A ray of light changes direction when it gets out of the water, and into the air.

What process is pencils bend in the water?
Refraction of light.
Refraction makes a ruler in a cup of warter look broken?
Refraction makes a ruler in a cup of water look broken because of the light rays bend when they move from water to air or air to water...
Who discovered law of refraction of light?
snells

Water's index of refraction is 1.333

What is the refraction of light in different medium?
the refraction of light in water medium is 1.0003,glass 1.5,etc.
Why does sunlight look curved in water?
Refraction.
When light hits the pigment what to water?
refraction
What was the kind of telescope Huygens might have used to discover Titan?
Huygens discovered Law Of Refraction.
When there is no refraction of light and why does it happen?
There will be refraction when light passes from one substance to the other (for example, from air to water), when the two substances have different indices of refraction, and when light passes the surface at an angle. In other cases, there is no refraction.
Why does an oar appear to be bent when part of it is in the water?
Refraction.
What process is pencils bend in the water?
Refraction of light.
