How do you use refraction to see?
refrection unit rate
What are the uses of refraction in daily life?
When you wear glasses, the light is refracted so that your eyes can see images better. Microscopes and telescopes use refraction to change the perception of images. When you look into water and see objects in the water appear distorted, that is refraction.
Why do you see a rainbow?
We see rainbow due to the refraction of the sun's rays by rain .
What does refraction means in terms of rainbows?
Refraction of bending lightrefraction means the bending of light, and the refraction of light in a prism causes to 'split' light in all its colors (that we can see and not see)Refraction is the bending of light. The bending of light is defined mathematically by Snell's law. The degree of bending through rain drops produces the various colors of the rainbow.
Is refraction involved when you see a transparent object in a clear liquid?
yes
Why do you not normall see refraction when you look across the room?
Because light is only refracted when it passes into a more or less dense medium. As the density of air is reasonably constant, refraction is not easily observable in your average room.
Why do you not normally see refraction when you look across a room?
Because light is only refracted when it passes into a more or less dense medium. As the density of air is reasonably constant, refraction is not easily observable in your average room, however on a very hot day, you can see refraction in the form of heat waves, as the hotter air is less dense than the cooler air.
Why do you see only portion of the area behind you when you look in a mirror?
All of the light waves are not able to reach across the room on to the mirror
What did Galileo see that convinced him that the Earth was not the center of the Solar System?
by inventing the refraction telescope to look out into space
Imagine that you are a fish underwater When you look up to the surface to the water you can see the sky and also the bottom of the pool How do you explain this unusual view?
Reflection and refraction. You see the reflection on the bottom of the surface of the pool. You see the refraction of light through the surface of the pool. This is the super short answer...someone else might provide more information but the reader can "google" reflection and refraction to find out more.
How does refraction affect the appearance of the sky?
The sky is blue because of refraction. Sunsets and sunrise are so beautiful because of refraction. If there was no refraction, we would see the sky as a black expanse.
What is a good link to see pictures of light refraction?
go to Google, and type in: a good picture of light refraction
