Reflection and Refraction

The pictures shows what a student observed when he looked through a hand lens at a penny.
What happens to light passing through a hand lens that makes the image of the penny appear larger? The light is-

• absorbed
• reflected
• refracted
• stopped

The illustration shows a light ray striking an object.
In the illustration, the light ray striking the object is-

• absorbed
• stopped
• reflected
• refracted

A student placed a pencil in a cup of water.  The pencil appears broken because light-

• always travels in a straight line
• bends when it passes through water
• makes the water in the glass evaporate
• reflects the pencil on the water's surface

The bouncing off of light rays from the surface of an object such as a mirror or other shiny surface is called:

• mirror
• laser
• reflection
• refraction

Why does the lower part of the child appear so much different in size from the upper part?

• The light rays that travel through water and then into air are refracted.
• The light rays that travel through water and then into air are enlarged.
• The light rays that travel through air and then into water are reflected.
• The light rays that travel through air and then into water are reduced.
