- 1What happens when light waves pass from one medium to another?they undergo a change of direction when they pass from one medium to another at an interface
- 2what is this calledrefraction
- 3when light enters a more dense medium it refracts...towards the normal
- 4when light enters a less dense medium it is refracted...away from the normal
- 5when waves are travelling along the normal...they are not refracted
- 6waves are refracted due to a..change of speed
- 7What is refraction in a prism calleddispersion
