When is light refracted?
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.
What happens when light travels through a pair of eyeglasses?
When light travels through a pair of eyeglasses, they are refracted (bent) by the lenses to correct vision problems such as nearsightedness or farsightedness. The lenses in the eyeglasses help to focus light properly onto the retina at the back of the eye, allowing for clearer vision.
When white light travels through a glass prism which colour is refracted through the largest angle?
Violet light is refracted through the largest angle when white light passes through a glass prism because it has the shortest wavelength of all the colors in the visible spectrum.
Write down different properties of light and sound?
Light: travels in straight lines, can be reflected, refracted, or absorbed, has a constant speed in a vacuum. Sound: travels in waves, requires a medium to propagate, can be reflected, refracted, or diffracted, its speed depends on the medium through which it travels.
What is the difference between refracted light and reflected light?
Refraction is the change in direction caused by a speed differential as light travels through different mediums, or temperature/pressure gradients. Reflection is light directly hitting an object and exiting at the same angle at which it hit.
What is refracted when it travels through an object and is bent?
light
What is light when it travels through the lens of a telescope?
refracted
When white light travels through a glass prism what colour is refracted through the smallest angle?
Red since red light travels the slowest
What happened to light when it is refracted?
When light is Refracted it bends when it travels from one medium to another

When is light not refracted?
Light is not refracted when while it passes through a vacuum, or through any uniform material.
When light travels through a pair of eyeglasses is it reflected or refracted?
Refracted. Light passing through is refracted, light bouncing off of is reflected.
What happens to light as it travels through different material?
When light travels through a different material, it may be absorbed, reflected, refracted, or transmitted depending on the properties of the material. The speed and direction of light may also change as it interacts with the material, affecting its wavelength and frequency.
