Diffraction occurs when waves around the edge of a barrier?
Diffraction is phenomena that occurs when a wave encounters an obstacle. This happens when a wave reaches an obstacle that is comparable in size to it.
Bending a wave around a barrier is called?
It is called diffraction.
What is the bending of waves around a barrier?
Diffraction is the bending of a wave at an angle as it passes from one medium to another.
What do you mean by diffraction of light?
diffraction is the bending of a wave around a barrier such as an obstacle or the edges of an opening. Every wave is the source of another wave. Yes, and each different wavelength of light is bent at a different angle, thus separating the visual (color) spectrum which allows you to see a rainbow effect.
What is defraction of light?
diffraction is the bending of a wave around a barrier such as an obstacle or the edges of an opening. Every wave is the source of another wave. Yes, and each different wavelength of light is bent at a different angle, thus separating the visual (color) spectrum which allows you to see a rainbow effect.

What do you call the bending of a wave around the edge of a barrier?
Diffraction, more diffraction if wavelength is increased (or frequency decreased)

When a light wave bends around a barrier or the edge of an opening the resulting waves can?
interfere with each other
What determines how much a wave diffracts when it encounters an opening or a barrier?
wavelength
What is the bending of a wave around an object?
Defraction.
The bending of a wave as it passes an edge or an opening is called?
Diffraction. Bending of light/sound as it moves from one medium to another - Refraction.
