    Bending of light rays around the edges of an obstacle is known as:

    A)  refraction       

    B)  polarisation

    C)  diffraction      

    D)  reflection

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     The bending of light rays around the edges of an obstacle is known as diffraction. While refraction is the change in direction of a wave due to a change in its speed. Polarisation is the property of electromagnetic waves such as light, that describes the direction of their transverse electric field. Whereas reflection is a wave phenomenon commonly observed in mirrors.
