Refraction, a challenging puzzle in The Talos Principle 2, is situated in the Eastern Wetlands region. This area can be accessed during the main campaign playthrough and features a total of eight ...

The first law of refraction states that the incident rays, refracted rays, and the normal to the interface at the point of incidence, all lie in the same plane. The ratio of the sine of the angle of ...

If the light rays are travelling from one medium to another they change their direction at the boundary between two mediums. When the light rays either bend or change their direction while passing ...

Light bends when travelling through a concentration gradient of sugar in water. The top layer of liquid is pure water while the bottom layer is concentrated sugar water. In these layers, there is no ...

Recent experiments that demonstrate the negative refraction of light could bring a heated scientific debate to a close, and give negative-index materials a positive future Figure 1: Negative-index ...

Scientists have unveiled a groundbreaking discovery: a material capable of bending light in unprecedented ways. This advancement opens up possibilities for innovations in optics, including superlenses ...

We’ve all seen reflection used in photography—like when a lake doubles as a mirror to the sky. For this week’s Shooting Challenge, we’re going a step more complicated and using the principles of ...
