What is the definition of Refraction?

• The bending of waves as they enter a new medium

• When two interfering waves have a displacement in the opposite direction, crest and trough overlap. Zero amplitude.

• When two interfering waves have a displacement in the same direction, two crests and two troughs overlap. Increased amplitude.

• None (same wavelength)

Which wave has the largest frequency?

• A
• B
• C
• None (same frequency)
