When light waves travel from air to glass, the variables that are affected include the speed of light (slows down in glass compared to air), the angle of refraction (changes as light enters the glass at an angle), and the wavelength of the light (may change due to the different medium).

Can both light and sound travel through glass?

Yes, both light and sound can travel through glass. Glass is transparent to light, allowing it to pass through without significant absorption or scattering. Sound can also travel through glass, but with some attenuation due to its denser nature compared to air.

How is light affected when passing through water?

Light is affected by everything it touches. If it touches a glass of water, it *refracts* (bends).

Does light travel faster in glass then it does in a vacuum?

No, slower.


What does the path of the sunlight through the air have to do with the climates?

Light is affected by a force called refraction which diverts its path depending on the 'thicknesss' of the medium it is traveling through. For example, a ray of light traveling through air and entering a thicker medium like glass will be refracted and travel in a different direction when it enters the glass. Different climates will create different atmospheric conditions which will make the light travel in different directions.


Does light have a medium to travel through?

No, apart from "spacetime". But it CAN travel through a medium such as air or glass.
