  • Why does the straw appear to be bent?
    light is refracted
  • What is refraction ?
    Light changes direction and speed when it passes through 2 different mediums
  • Draw the refracted ray: light travels from air into a block of glass
  • Light moves slower through a more dense medium. True or False
    True
  • True or False: The angle of reflection is always greater than the angle of incidence
    False
