What else can I help you with?
Do convex lenses cause light to bend?
Yes, they make light bend inwards towards a focus point.
Why does widening a prism cause a beam of light to bend more?
Widening a prism increases the angle at which light enters the prism, which causes the light to refract more as it passes through. This results in a greater deviation of the light beam, causing it to bend more.
What will cause the laser light to bend as it enters a ice cube?
The bending of the laser light as it enters an ice cube is caused by refraction, which occurs due to the change in speed of light as it moves from air to ice. This change in speed causes the light to change direction, or bend, as it enters the denser medium of the ice.
Why doesn't the larger beam of light bend like the two beams in the middle of the tank?
The larger beam of light doesn't appear to bend in a fish tank because light rays only bend when they pass through mediums with different densities, like air and water. In this case, the larger beam of light is already traveling through the water, so it doesn't encounter a change in density that would cause it to bend.
What word means bend or cause to bend?
The word that means to bend or cause to bend is "flex." It can be used in both the context of bending a physical object or a person's body.
What causes the light from far away galaxies to bend?
If the light from a distance galaxy passes near a massive cosmic object, then the gravity of that object will distort space-time. That will cause the light to bend.

If you shine a laser pointer into an ice cube properties will cause the laser light to bend as it enters the ice cube?
refraction causes it to bend

Do rainbows bend light?
No. Water droplets bend light to make rainbows.

When light rays enter a new medium at an angle what does the change in speed cause the ray to do?
The change in speed causes the light to bend. If it is travelling from an optically dencer to an optically rarer medium the ray will bend away from the normal. But if it is travelling from an optically rarer to an optically denser medium then it will bend towards the normal.
What kind of light travels in a straight line?
Visible light travels in a straight line unless it encounters obstacles or mediums that cause it to bend or scatter.
Does light bend when it reflects on glass?
no , and its not calld 'bend' its called 'reflected' but its like bend but ITS NOT :)
How does light curve at all?
Light does not bend.
