When a wave strikes a boundary, it can undergo reflection, transmission, or absorption. Reflection occurs when the wave bounces off the boundary and travels in the opposite direction. Transmission happens when the wave passes through the boundary and continues traveling in the same medium. Absorption occurs when the wave's energy is absorbed by the boundary material.
The bouncing back of a wave after it strikes a barrier is called reflection. Reflection occurs when a wave encounters a boundary or obstacle that does not allow it to pass, causing the wave to rebound in the opposite direction.
An incident wave is a wave that strikes a boundary or obstacle. A reflected wave is a wave that bounces off the boundary or obstacle and travels in the opposite direction.
The bouncing back or change in direction of a wave after it strikes a barrier or object is called reflection. Reflection occurs when the wave encounters a boundary and is sent back in the opposite direction, akin to an echo in sound waves.
Attenuation is when a wave is dampened inside a soft boundary. This occurs when the energy of the wave is absorbed or dissipated by the material of the boundary, causing the wave to decrease in intensity.
When a light wave traveling through a diamond strikes a boundary with water at a 45 degree angle, it will refract as it enters the water due to the change in medium density. Some of the light will also reflect off the boundary between the diamond and water, causing partial reflection and transmission of the light wave.

When a light wave traveling through a diamond strikes a boundary with water at a 45 degree angle, it will refract as it enters the water due to the change in medium density. Some of the light will also reflect off the boundary between the diamond and water, causing partial reflection and transmission of the light wave.
When a wave is partially reflected at a boundary, some of the wave energy bounces back into the original medium, while the rest continues to propagate into the new medium. The degree of reflection depends on the properties of the two media (such as their densities and speeds of sound) and the angle at which the wave strikes the boundary.
Refraction is the phenomenon in which a wave changes direction as it moves from one medium to another, caused by a change in its speed due to changing mediums. This bending of the wave occurs because the wave changes speed at different points along the boundary between the two mediums.
