Question

a halo around the sun or moon is an example of what property of emr?
o diffraction
o refraction
o inflection
o deflection

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A halo around the Sun or Moon is formed when light from the Sun or Moon passes through ice - crystals in the atmosphere. The light is bent as it passes through these ice - crystals, which is an example of refraction. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another. Deflection is a more general term not specific to this optical phenomenon. Inflection is not related to this optical effect. Diffraction involves the bending of light around obstacles or through small openings, which is not the case for halos.

Answer:

C. refraction
