The beam of light entering your eye can change direction at the cornea, the lens, and the vitreous body. These structures help focus the light onto the retina at the back of the eye, where the images are formed.
To change the direction of a light beam, you can use mirrors or lenses to reflect or refract the light in the desired direction. Adjusting the angle of the mirror or lens will change the direction of the light beam. Alternatively, you can physically move the light source or the object the light is reflecting off of to change the direction of the beam.
No, a laser beam travels in a straight line through air unless it reflects off a surface. The direction of a laser beam can be altered by using mirrors or prisms, but it does not change direction on its own in mid-air.
A beam of light can change direction when it passes from one medium to another with a different optical density, a process called refraction. This commonly occurs at the interface between air and another material like glass or water. The amount of bending depends on the angle at which the light enters the new medium.
When a beam of light hits water, it can undergo refraction, which causes it to change direction due to the change in speed between air and water. Some of the light may also be reflected off the surface of the water.
Mirrors change the direction of light by reflecting it off their surface. When light hits a mirror, it bounces off at an angle that is equal to the angle at which it hit the mirror. This phenomenon is known as reflection.
The beam of light changes direction at the cornea (front surface of the eye), the lens (inside the eye), and the retina (back of the eye) to focus the image onto the retina for visual processing.

Because it slows down when entering water.
the light 'beam' (if you like) will slightly change direction this is bending light, light only travels in straight lines but due to the shape of the glass it changes direction when the beam exits the glass its should go back to its shape of ligh beam .

No, a shelf support is likely a cantilevered beam, that is not a simple machine. Simple machines exploit leverage to increase or change the direction of force, a cantilevered beam merely supports a force.
Mirrors change the direction of light by reflecting it off their surface. When light hits a mirror, it bounces off at an angle that is equal to the angle at which it hit the mirror. This phenomenon is known as reflection.
Camber is the amount of deflection provided in the opposite direction of loadings. That is when the beam is subjected to Vertical downward loadings, the beam has a tendency of deflecting downwards. In this case, camber value is to be given in the upward direction so that when it is fully loaded condition, the beam would have almost zero deflection. Similarly, when the beam is subjected to vertical upward loadings, the camber value is to be given in downward direction. The purpose of camber in steel beam is to have almost zero deflection w.r.t.o beam axis after loading of beam as highlighted earlier. by R.Ravichandran, Chennai-49
