What happens when a light moves from a material with a lower index of refraction to another material with a higher index of refraction?
The ray of light bends towards the normal.
Light travels faster in a material with a lower index of refraction.?
true
What happens if light moves from a material in which its speed is lower to one in which its speed is higher the ray is bent away from the?
If light moves from a material with a lower speed to one with a higher speed, it undergoes refraction. This causes the light ray to bend away from the normal line, which is an imaginary line perpendicular to the surface of the material at the point where the light enters or exits. The angle of refraction is dependent on the difference in speed between the two materials.
When light passes from a medium with a high index of refraction into a medium with a lower index of refraction which direction does the light bend?
A medium with a higher index of refraction, like diamond, is more dense than the medium with a lower index of refraction, like air. If the ray of light is moving from the less dense medium (lower index of refraction), to a more dense (higher index of refraction) the ray of light bends TOWARDS the normal.
What happens when speed of light enters a new kind of medium?
When light passes from one medium to another with a different refractive index, andnot in a direction perpendicular to the boundary between the media, its speed changes.
When a beam of light passes at an oblique angle into a material of lower?
less than the angle of reflection
When a beam of light passes into a material of lower optical density the angle of incidence is what?
The angle of incidence is less than the angle of refraction when a beam of light passes into a material of lower optical density. This is because light bends away from the normal when entering a less optically dense medium.
When a beam of light of passes at an oblique angle into a material of lower optical desity?
less than the angle of refraction
When a beam of light passes at an oblique angle into a material of lower optical densitythe angle of incidence is?
greater than the angle of refraction
When a beam of light passes at an oblique angle into a material of lower optical density the angle if incidence is what?
less than the angle of refraction.
What happens when a material index of refraction is higher or lower?
When the index of refraction of a material is higher, light slows down and bends more when traveling through that material. This causes the light to be more strongly refracted. When the index of refraction is lower, light speeds up and bends less, resulting in weaker refraction.
When a beam of light passes at an oblique angle into a material?
The result of a beam of light passing through a material relies entirely on the optical density of the material. If its density is lower than air, then the angle of incidence will be less (more acute) than the angle at which it enters. The opposite is true for a material with higher optical density.
What happens when a light moves from a material with a lower index of refraction to another material with a higher index of refraction?
The ray of light bends towards the normal.
What happens when light moves from a material in which it's speed is higher to a material in which it's speed is lower?
-- its speed decreases -- its wavelength increases -- if it doesn't approach the boundary perpendicular to it, then it bends closer to the perpendicular
Can be photosynthesis carried out using light from a torch light explain?
Yes, but as the light intensity is much lower the rate at which it happens is also much lower.
