Question

Red, green, and blue light rays each enter a drop of water from the same direction.Which light ray's path through the drop will bend the most, and which will bend the least?Why?

Answer 1

The red will bend less cause it is less dense than all the other colors.

Answer 2

Blue light will bend more than the others because it has a slightly greater refractive index. This is because blue light has a shorter wavelength and more energy, meaning it has to slow down more than the others when it hits the water.
