How does density affect refraction? need to know asap

NottheMonga2087:

The density of a substance influences the acceleration of a wave. Frequently, the slower the light moves through the denser the clear material. Glass is thicker than air, and therefore it slows down from air to glass.

do you understand

blakev1503:

no

NottheMonga2087:

the density affects the speed of a wave

blakev1503:

o

NottheMonga2087:

the bending of a ray when it passes from one medium from another angle at a different speed as when light passes from air to the water of the which is refraction.
