Question
lesson 27 - properties of waves
as light travels through the atmosphere from the sun, what can slow it down?
entering a new medium such as glass or water
light never slows down
reflecting or bouncing off an object
Brief Explanations
Light travels at different speeds in different media. It slows down when entering a denser medium (e.g., glass or water) from a less dense one (e.g., air). The other options are incorrect: light does slow down in media, and reflection does not change its speed.
