Question

what is refraction of light?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

In physics, refraction is the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another or from a gradual change in the medium. Refraction of light is the most commonly observed phenomenon, but other waves such as sound waves and water waves also experience refraction.

Answer 2

• The change in the direction of a wave when it passes from one medium to another is known as refraction.

• When the incident light is perpendicular to the boundary, refraction of light is not possible.

• An example of refraction is rainbow. The light rays bend as they enter water drops in the atmosphere forming a rainbow.
