Question

A vertical line with Medium 1 to the left and Medium 2 to the right. An arrow from the left reaches the line. An arrow starts from the same point on the line and goes right at a different angle.

Which kind of wave interaction is shown?

absorption
diffraction
refraction
reflection

Answer 1

It’s Reflection because the Medium 1 reperents reflection

Answer 2

Refraction

Step-by-step explanation:

The wave interaction shown in this scenario is refraction. Refraction occurs when a wave passes from one medium to another and changes direction as a result of a change in its speed. This change in direction is due to the wave's change in speed as it enters a different medium with a different index of refraction. In the given scenario, the medium changes from Medium 1 to Medium 2, causing the wave to change direction as it passes through the boundary between the two media.
