Light is refracted by a discontinuity in the refractive index of the medium ... by
going from one medium into another one where the speed of light is different.
MIRROR
The red light is refracted as it passes through a prism. The different colors of light are refracted at slightly different angles due to their differing wavelengths, causing them to separate and create a rainbow effect.
direction and speed.
Light is refracted when it passes from one medium to another with a different optical density, such as from air to water or from air to glass. This phenomenon causes the light to change direction as it enters the new medium due to a change in its speed.
If light is neither reflected nor refracted, it will be absorbed by the object it encounters. This absorption of light energy can result in the object heating up.
When light is Refracted it bends when it travels from one medium to another
Light is refracted and reflected by a (glass) prism Light is refracted and reflected by a raindrop
Light is not refracted when while it passes through a vacuum, or through any uniform material.
When it is refracted.
It would be refracted.
