You need refraction for increasing or decreasing the size of an image. We can take x-ray images just fine, and we don't have anything that will refract x-rays.
X-ray refraction is the bending of x-rays as they pass through different tissues in the body. This bending occurs due to the varying densities of tissues, which causes the x-rays to change direction. This refraction affects the imaging of internal structures by creating contrast between different tissues, allowing for clearer visualization of bones, organs, and other structures in the body.
A ray with low index of refraction and greater velocity.
Reflection and Refraction
When a ray of light travels from a low index of refraction to a high index of refraction, it bends towards the normal line. This bending of light is known as refraction. The change in speed of light causes the light ray to change direction at the boundary between the two materials.
The change in direction of a ray of light as it enters a prism is called refraction. Refraction occurs due to the change in speed of light as it travels from one medium to another, causing the light ray to bend.
When a light ray is directed at a prism, it bends due to refraction at the first surface of the prism. Inside the prism, the light ray may undergo further refraction as it travels through the prism material. Finally, when the light ray exits the prism, it bends again due to refraction at the second surface.
The name given to a change of direction of a ray of light is called refraction. Refraction occurs when light passes from one medium to another with a different optical density, causing the light ray to bend.
