Question

Causes of Refraction​

Answer 1

The cause of refraction of light is as follows:

The frequency of the refracted ray remains constant.

Due to partial reflection and absorption of light at the interface, the intensity of the refracted ray will be less than the incident ray.

When the light crosses the boundary between two different media, deviation of light occurs resulting in refraction such that there is a change in wavelength and speed of light.

Answer 2

The cause of refraction of light is that light travels with different speeds in different media. This Change in the speed of light when it moves from one medium to another causes it to bend.
