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.
What else can I help you with?
Why do we not see refraction when we look across a room?
Refraction typically occurs when light passes through different mediums with different densities, causing the light to bend. In a room with air as the main medium, the refraction effect is minimal because the density of the air remains relatively consistent. Unless there are significant temperature variations or objects causing distortion, refraction is not noticeable when looking across a room.
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.
What is the index of refraction of air at room temperature?
The index of refraction of air at room temperature is approximately 1.0003.
Why don't you see a beam of light from a flashlight refract as it travels across a room?
When light travels in homogenous mediums, like air in a room, it doesn't refract visibly to our eyes. Refraction occurs when light travels between mediums of different densities, such as from air to water or glass. In the case of a flashlight in a room, the change in density is minimal and therefore not perceivable as refraction.
