Final answer:
The color of reflected and refracted light is determined by wavelength. Option (D) is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
No, the color is determined by wavelength. The magnitude of the angle decreases. Reflection is the act of light reflecting back when it hits a medium on a plane. Refraction is the process by which light shifts its path as it travels through a material, causing the light to bend. Thus, this is the key difference between reflection and refraction.
Reflection is the bouncing back of light when it strikes a smooth surface. Refraction is the bending of light rays when it travels from one medium to another. Generally occurs on shinny surfaces that only allow rebounding of light without permitting penetration through it.
Reflection involves a change in direction of waves when they bounce off a barrier. Refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another. Refraction, or the bending of the path of the waves, is accompanied by a change in speed and wavelength of the waves.
