Answer:
Light refracts when its speed changes as it enters a new medium.
Explanation:
Bending of light wave while it entering a medium with different speed is called refraction of light. Light passing from a faster medium to the slower medium bends the light rays toward the normal to boundary between two media. The amount of the bending of light depends on refractive index of the two media which is described by the Snell's Law. The angle of incidence is not equal to angle of refraction. Rainbow is caused but this refraction phenomena. Also Refraction is used in magnifying glasses, prism and lenses
The tactile system is actually made up of two distinct skin senses;
protective and the discriminative system. The function of the protective system
is to alert us to harmful stimuli. The receptors of the system are the hairs of
our skin, head and genitals. The discriminative system is to show us what we
are touching, where on our bodies is touching us and what are touching us. The receptors
for his system are the hands, fingers, soles of feet and mouth and tongue.
