The angle of a refracted light wave is typically measured with respect to the normal, which is an imaginary line perpendicular to the boundary between two mediums. This angle is known as the angle of refraction and can be determined using Snell's Law, which relates the angles of incidence and refraction to the refractive indices of the two mediums.
If light waves change speed as they pass from one medium into another at an angle, the light will be refracted, meaning it will bend as it enters the new medium. This bending is due to the change in speed of the light wave.
When a light wave is refracted, it bends as it passes from one medium to another with a different optical density. The speed of light changes as it enters the new medium, causing the wave to change direction. This bending is due to a change in the wave's velocity.
When a wave is refracted, it changes direction as it passes from one medium to another due to a change in its speed. This bending of the wave is caused by the wave entering the new medium at an angle other than perpendicular to the boundary between the two mediums.
yes, sound is a wave. waves can be refracted.
Yes, the light wave goes in the direction of the angle or reflection.

The light acts as a wave, and the wave accelerates differentially at the border.

When light strikes a transparent object, it can be transmitted through the object, reflected off its surface, or refracted (bent) as it passes through. The behavior of light will depend on the angle at which it strikes the object and the material properties of the object.
No. Light is an example of an electromagnetic wave.
When an electromagnetic wave or light wave hits a wall or fixed end, it can be partially reflected back or absorbed by the material. The angle of reflection from the wall is equal to the angle of incidence, following the law of reflection. The wave can also be refracted if it enters a different medium, causing it to change speed and direction.
equal to the angle of incidence.
When a light wave is reflected from a mirror, its direction changes. The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. The frequency and wavelength of the light wave remain the same after reflection.
When a light ray moves from a less dense medium to a denser medium, it bends towards the normal. This bending is due to the decrease in speed of light in the denser medium, causing the light wave to change direction. The angle of refraction is smaller than the angle of incidence in this scenario.
