Bending light,
or refraction, occurs when light passes between materials with different densities (e.g., air to water or glass), causing its speed and path to change. This phenomenon makes objects appear distorted, creates rainbows, and allows lenses in glasses, microscopes, and cameras to focus light. The degree of bending depends on the material's index of refraction and the angle of incidence.
