When light bends, it changes direction due to interacting with a different medium or passing through a boundary between materials with different optical properties. This change in direction is known as refraction. Refraction occurs because the speed of light changes as it moves through different mediums, causing it to bend towards the normal (perpendicular line) of the material it is entering.
What else can I help you with?
A concave lens bends light towards its what?
A concave lens bends light away from its center, diverging the light rays.
Does red bends the most when the light rays bend?
No, the amount by which light bends depends on its wavelength and the medium it is passing through. In general, red light bends less than blue light when passing through transparent materials, because red light has a longer wavelength.
When sunlight passes through a prism what colour dispersed light bends the least?
Red light, which has the longest wavelength, bends the least when passing through a prism, while violet light, with the shortest wavelength, bends the most.
When light passes from water into air the light bends away from the normal true or false?
False. When light passes from water into air, it bends towards the normal.
When light passes into a dense material does it bends away from the normal?
No, when light passes into a denser material, it bends toward the normal. This phenomenon is known as refraction.

What is happens when light is refracted by matter?
the light bends.
What property of light bends light rays?
Refraction
Does red bends the most when the light rays bend?
No, the amount by which light bends depends on its wavelength and the medium it is passing through. In general, red light bends less than blue light when passing through transparent materials, because red light has a longer wavelength.
Where does light go when it refracted?
It bends.
What is the bending of light wave?
Refraction is the process that bends light.
When sunlight passes through a prism what colour dispersed light bends the least?
Red light, which has the longest wavelength, bends the least when passing through a prism, while violet light, with the shortest wavelength, bends the most.
When light passes from water into air the light bends away from the normal true or false?
False. When light passes from water into air, it bends towards the normal.
Which medium light bends least?
gamma
What bends but doesnt break in science?
light
When light bends you call this?
That would be refraction.
When light passes into a dense material does it bends away from the normal?
No, when light passes into a denser material, it bends toward the normal. This phenomenon is known as refraction.
