Light travels super fast, but when it passes from air into water or glass, it slows down and bends! This is refraction.
👉 Click any bubble to unlock the secret concept!
Rainbows and magnifying glasses work entirely because of light bending (refraction)!
Refraction is what makes a straw look bent or broken when you place it inside a glass of water!
Click the steps in chronological order (1st to last) to test your visual memory!
Refraction is the bending of light as it passes between materials.
Light slows down in denser materials (glass, water) and speeds up in air.
Lenses use refraction to focus light and magnify objects.
Prisms split white light into 7 rainbow colors by refracting different wavelengths at different angles.
