This
page is designed to help teach you about Reflection and Refraction.
Reflection
is when light rays bounce off an object. Some examples include
a mirror, or tinted windows in
a car.
Refraction
is the bending of light rays. Light travels through at different
speeds. When light rays are
refracted is due to them changing their speed. Some examples of refraction
are microscopes, eyeglass lenses, telescopes, binoculars, concave and
convex lenses.
