Question
- light that refracts when it goes through a glass of water ______.a. changes directionb. changes speed and directionc. changes to another type of energy, such as heat
Brief Explanations
Refraction occurs when light passes between two media with different optical densities. When light moves from air into water/glass, its speed decreases (since water/glass is denser than air), and it bends (changes direction) towards the normal. This means both speed and direction are altered.
