Why would a chip in a glass block cause light to refract differently?

It would cause light to refract differently because the angle at which the light hits the glass block would alter and there for the way the light refracts would also alter.

How does the curve in a lens cause it to refract light differntly from a flat piece of glass?
cause i dont know
What causes light to refract when it hits a piece of glass?
the light rays hit the piece of glass and the surface of the glass causes it to refract
Does clear glass refract light?
Clear glass does refract light when light passes from another medium like water to clear glass. But there is an exception. If the ray of light were to pass through water and hit the clear glass straight or at 90 Degrees to the surface, then clear glass does not refract the light.
What happened when a ray of light is shone at a glass block?
It all depends on the angle if incidence. In general the light will refract i.e. bend through the glass and come out at the other end. Also, the speed of light will vary through the glass.
which of the following does not refract light?
glass of water
What are three things refract light?
glass,water and air
Why will a diamond block refract light at a bigger angle that glass?
This is a property called the refractive index. It is related loosely to the electrical permittivity of diamond and more specifically to the arrangement of electrons in the crystal lattice.
What are things that refract?
glass, windows really anything that you can see through.
Why does light refract when it passes from air into a glass slab?
Because glass slab is optically denser than air.
How many times does light refract when going through a window?
two times. air to glass, glass to air.
Will a glass of water hold more pennies than a glass of water with soap?
Water doesn't refract more light than glass
What are things that refract light?
glass, windows really anything that you can see through.
