Please can you guys help me

1. When examining the three media in the lab which medium (Water, Glass, Diamond) did you think would cause the most bending of light when the light passed through it?

2. Which medium caused the most bending of light as it passed through? 3. How much the light is bending depends on what?

4. When light strikes the second medium what are the two things that happen?

5. Give an example of a time that you have observed how light bends as it travels from the air through a different medium.

Q1. Diamond, Q2. Diamond, Q3. The amount of light bending depends on angle and wavelength the light enters the substance and how dense the substance is, Q4. If the second substance is more dense than the first, the light ray bends towards the ‘normal’, if it’s less dense it bends away, Q5. In the swimming pool, when you look at a person’s body underwater they appear disjointed.
