Electromagnetic radiation travels from the sun to Earth.

Matter travels from the sun to Earth.

Sound waves travel from the sun to Earth.

Longitudinal waves travel from the sun to Earth.

Why does the light wave bend as it travels from the water through the glass?

The light wave's speed decreases as it passes from the water into the glass.

The light wave's speed increases as it passes from the water into the glass.

The light wave's frequency increases as it passes from the water into the glass.

The light wave's frequency decreases as it passes from the water into the glass.

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.
