The waves from the bottom part of the pencil (traveling through air then water then air) reach your eyes than the waves reflected from the top of the spoon (only traveling through air). d. Different substances have different i. This is because waves travel in ii. The light travels through a substance, the more it will when it enters the substance. e. Prisms light. i. Light and bends when it enters the prism at an angle. ii. Each wavelength within white light slows down and bends iii. The violet light end slows down than the red light end, so it bends. INTERFERENCE 1. Waves can with other waves. 2. Interference: When several waves are, they to form a new wave that is from the original waves. a. Once the waves have and moved on, they will return to their. 3. Constructive interference a. When the crest of one wave overlaps the of another wave, the waves each other. i. These waves are b.
