What happens when light from the sun passes through any type of matter? the light slows down. the light speeds up. most of the light is absorbed. most of the light is reflected.

When the light from the sun passes through any type of matter, the light slows down.

Explanation: When the light is coming from the sun, it is entering the atmosphere that is air, which has a refractive index of 1.0003

Formula for refractive index is :

where, n = refractive index of a medium

c = speed of light =

As, refractive index of a medium is always greater than 1, so the velocity of light will decrease whenever the light passes through any medium.
