What happens to the wavelength of a wave as it leaves the air and enters Perspex?

The wavelength of the wave decreases as it enters Perspex due to the change in the speed of the wave, according to Snell's Law. The wave slows down in Perspex, causing the wavelength to shorten.


What happens to wavelength as a wave leaves the air and enters the perspex?

The wavelength bends forward as it leaves the air and enters the Perspex. The frequency of the wavelength will also increase.


What happens to a ray of light as it enters and leaves a glass block?

The ray of light gets refracted. Depending on the medium it is entering, it will bend either to or away from the normal. For example, if it is entering a glass block from air, it will bend towards the normal, and if it leaves a glass block and enters air it will bend away from the normal. The amount the ray bends depends on the angle of incidences and the refractive indices of the two mediums, and are governed by Snell's Law.


What can have a conductor though it which an electric current enters or leaves?

A conductor can have a wire through which an electric current enters or leaves. This conductor allows the flow of electricity between two points, providing a pathway for electrons to move through.


Bending of light as it passes through water?

Yes, light bends as it enters water. This is known as refraction of light. It is the change in direction of a wave due to a change in it's speed. Water has an index of refraction of 1.333 and air has an index of refraction of 1.From Wikipedia:In optics, refraction occurs when light waves travel from a medium with a given refractive index to a medium with another. At the boundary between the media, the wave's phase velocity is altered, usually causing a change in direction. Its wavelength increases or decreases but its frequency remains constant. For example, a light ray will refract as it enters and leaves glass, assuming there is a change in refractive index. A ray traveling along the normal (perpendicular to the boundary) will change speed, but not direction.

What is difference between radial flow turbine and axial flow turbine?

in a radial flow turbine the steam enters the turbine in the direction of its radius and leaves it in the direction of the axis of the shaft. in a axial flow turbine the steam enters the turbine in the direction of the axis of the shaft and leaves the turbine in the same direction.
