The phenomenon of change in direction of light when it passes from one medium to another is called
-
- Propagation
- Reflection
- Refraction
- Dispersion
- Propagation
Correct Option: C
Refraction is the change in direction of wave propagation due to a change in its transmission medium.Due to the change of medium, the phase velocity of the wave is changed but its frequency remains constant. Refraction of light is the most commonly observed refractive phenomenon, but any type of wave can refract when it interacts with a medium.
