In a sense, light does not bend. Light sometimes passes through space (or space-time) that is warped or bent because of a nearby object having very strong gravity. The light passes through this space in what (from the light's point of view) is a straight line. To other observers the light may appear to have followed a bent path. So gravity warps space-time, and light appears to bend as it travels through this warped space-time. The light isn't doing anything except following what is a completely natural path through space.
A concave lens bends light away from its center, diverging the light rays.
the light bends.
Refraction
It bends.
No, the amount by which light bends depends on its wavelength and the medium it is passing through. In general, red light bends less than blue light when passing through transparent materials, because red light has a longer wavelength.
Refraction is the process that bends light.
Red light, which has the longest wavelength, bends the least when passing through a prism, while violet light, with the shortest wavelength, bends the most.
False. When light passes from water into air, it bends towards the normal.
gamma
light
That would be refraction.
No, when light passes into a denser material, it bends toward the normal. This phenomenon is known as refraction.
