What happens to light waves to make it look smaller

Answer:

Waves traveling from the deep end to the shallow end can be seen to refract (i.e., bend), decrease wavelength (the wave fronts get closer together)

Step-by-step explanation:

If light passes through smaller openings, often called slits, you can use Huygens's principle to show that light bends as sound does. The bending of a wave around the edges of an opening or an obstacle is called diffraction. Diffraction is a wave characteristic that occurs for all types of waves.
