Wavefront Refraction Quiz

What is the first step in drawing a wavefront diagram when transitioning from deeper to shallower regions?

• Measure the wavelength

• Draw the wavefronts directly

• Identify the normal line

• Draw guide lines for wave direction

In the transition from deeper to shallower regions, how does the wave refract?

• No refraction occurs

• Away from the normal

• Closer to the normal

• Parallel to the normal

What is the relationship between wavefronts and wave direction in a wavefront diagram?

• They are at a 45-degree angle

• They are parallel

• They are at a 30-degree angle

• They are perpendicular

How does the wavelength change when moving from deeper to shallower regions?

• It becomes longer

• It remains the same

• It becomes shorter

• It fluctuates

When transitioning from shallower to deeper regions, how does the wave refract?

• Closer to the normal

• Away from the normal

• No refraction occurs

• Parallel to the normal
