    Mixing coloured materials, such as paint, is an example of subtractive colour mixing. Red paint appears red to us because when white light strikes it, the red pigments reflect the red wavelengths of light and absorball of the wavelengths. This reflected light is what is seen by our eyes. The same is true for all of the other colours. So what about ...

    2. "Diffraction" of light occurs when. light bounces off a surface. light bends around corners or obstacles. light changes intensity when passing from one material into another. light waves add together to make a wave with larger amplitude. 3. For diffraction of a wave to occur, the wave must be a sound wave.

    Mar 26, 2024 · To calculate the index of refraction, we need to divide the speed of light in a vacuum (3 x 10^8 m/s) by the speed of light in the object. Therefore, the index of refraction is 3 x 10^8 m/s divided by 1.97 x 10^8 m/s, which equals approximately 1.52. Rate this question: 9 5. 5. The critical angle of zircon is 31°.
