What else can I help you with?
Why the frequency remains constant during reflection or refraction?
tah sun is our most important source of heat and light,without it living things cannoy survive on earth. we get light and heat from other things ,too. the stars also give us heat and light. can you name other sources of heat and light aside from the sun
What are some examples of how light energy can be converted into heat energy?
Light energy can be converted into heat energy through processes like absorption, reflection, and refraction. For example, when sunlight hits a dark surface, the surface absorbs the light energy and converts it into heat. Similarly, when light is reflected off a surface, some of the energy is converted into heat. Refraction of light through a medium can also generate heat energy.
What is it called when a wave goes from one medium to another and it changes speed and direction?
It is called refraction. Refraction occurs when a wave changes speed and direction as it travels from one medium to another, due to the change in its wave velocity and the change in the medium's optical density.
Can heat be refracted?
Heat cannot be refracted in the same way that light can. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes through different medium. Heat, on the other hand, is the transfer of thermal energy from a higher temperature object to a lower temperature object.
How do you think increasing a medium's index of refraction might affect the angle of refraction?
Increasing the medium's index of refraction will cause the angle of refraction to decrease. This is because light bends more towards the normal as it enters a medium with a higher index of refraction.
In refraction heat is transferred from one objects to another?
No that's conduction.

Can a fire start through the refraction and conversion of light?
No, a fire cannot start through the refraction and conversion of light alone. Fire requires a heat source, fuel, and an oxidizing agent (such as oxygen) to ignite and sustain combustion. Light refraction and conversion do not generate enough heat to start a fire.

How does refraction change light?
What is Refraction?? What is Refraction??
What does light bend when it passes from air into glass?
refraction
What is the suffix for refraction?
The suffix for refraction is "-tion".
Which is better reflection or refraction?
Refraction is better.

Why do you not normally see refraction when you look across a room?
Because light is only refracted when it passes into a more or less dense medium. As the density of air is reasonably constant, refraction is not easily observable in your average room, however on a very hot day, you can see refraction in the form of heat waves, as the hotter air is less dense than the cooler air.
