refraction or refracted
Light rays are bent and brought by a refraction.
The point where rays of light converge after passing through a lens is called the focal point. It is the point where the light rays come together, either in front of (converging lens) or behind (diverging lens) the lens.
Light rays coming in are called incident light rays.
The light rays that bounce back are called reflected light rays.
When light moves from air to water, it changes speed and direction, causing the light rays to bend. This bending of light creates an optical illusion that makes the portion of the straw underwater appear bent. This effect is called refraction.

Bent light rays come together at the focal point of a converging lens or mirror. This is where the parallel light rays converge after passing through or reflecting off the optical surface. The distance between the lens (or mirror) and the focal point is known as the focal length.
An example of light refracting is a spoon in water and looks like it has been bent in half.
A broad bundle of light rays is called a beam.
Solar energy
The point where light rays meet is called the focal point.
A collection of rays of light is called a beam or a ray bundle.
The bouncing of light rays is called reflection. When light rays strike a surface and return back in the same direction, it is known as reflection.
