Refraction refers to C. the bending of light rays when they pass from one medium into another

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon typical of wave. Refraction occurs when a wave travels through the boundary between two different mediums. When this occurs, the wave changes speed, wavelength and direction (but the frequency remains the same).

In particular, the direction of the refracted ray is determined by Snell's Law:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n_1 is the index of refraction of the 1st medium

n_2 is the index of refraction of the 2nd medium

\theta_1 is the angle of incidence, which is the angle between the direction of the incident wave and the normal to the boundary

\theta_2 is the angle of refraction, which is the angle between the direction of the refracted wave and the normal to the boundary

Therefore, the correct description of refraction is

C. the bending of light rays when they pass from one medium into another

Is motion on earth different from space
Rus_ich [418]
It's not that the laws of motion are any different on Earth than in space. But Earth's gravitational field has such an overwhelming force it masks their precise effects. And gravity is integral to all sorts of phenomena that we take for granted.

All object changes are compared with a ____ , which is an object that appears to stay in place?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

All object changes are compared with a <em>reference</em> , which is an object that appears to stay in place.

Explanation:

In scientific experiments, the changes in the experimental object are observed by comparing the changes with a reference object. In the reference object, no changes are made and conditions are kept normal in it. For example, if we want to measure the distance of two cars from a point, the point will be the reference point from which the distance shall be measured. Hence, all changes are made by comparison from a reference object or point.
