What is an example of abrupt refraction?

An example of abrupt refraction is when light waves pass from air into water, causing a sudden change in their speed and direction. This can be observed when a straw seems to bend at the point where it enters a glass of water due to the refraction of light waves.


Is a mirror reflecting sunlight an example of refraction?

No,that is reflection. Refraction is when light travels through something clear like water or glass and then the lihght bends and maybe even makes a rainbow


Can you give me an example of a sentence using the word refraction and medium?

" The light is bent by refraction, caused by the medium through which it passes"


How do you make a venndiagram of reflection refraction and difraction?

To create a Venn diagram to show the relationship between reflection, refraction, and diffraction, you can start by drawing three overlapping circles. Place reflection in one circle, refraction in another, and diffraction in the third. Where the circles overlap, you can show the instances where these phenomena can occur simultaneously, such as in the case of a prism splitting light into a spectrum (involving refraction and diffraction).


When a ruler looks bent or broken in a glass of water this is a example of refraction of a?

This is an example of refraction of light. Refraction occurs when light passes between mediums of different densities, causing the light rays to change direction. In this case, the light bends as it passes from the air into the water, making the ruler appear bent or broken.
