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.
When light passes at an angle to the normal from one medium into another in which its speed is higher
it is bent toward the normal.
it always lies along the normal.
it is unaffected.
it is bent away from the normal.
Based on the image, which medium has a larger index of refraction?
Medium 1 has a larger index of refraction.
Medium 2 has a larger index of refraction.
Both mediums have the same index of refraction.
Cannot be determined.
Why is the spectrum of light separated into its components of color when white light is directed to a prism?
Because light reflects off the prism's surface
The incident white light refracts and separates into its constituent colors
The white light is absorbed by the prism, separating its colors
The light speeds up as it moves from air into the denser plastic material
This is the example of dispersion of light
sky looks bright orange in the evening
shadow
Pool seems shallower
rainbow
