How does refraction support the particle theory of light? particles bounce off surfaces similar to the way in which a ball bounces off a wall. light slows down and bends when it moves from a less dense to a more dense medium. forces act on the particles to push or pull them from one medium to another. as light passes through an opening, it spreads out in all directions.

Forces act on the particles to push or pull them from one medium to another.

The correct answer is "Forces act on the particles to push or pull them from one medium to another".

Explanation:

Refraction: It is the phenomenon in which light gets bend while travelling from one medium to the another due to change in the speed of light.

In this phenomenon, the light gets bend towards the normal when the light rays is travelling from rarer medium to denser medium. The light gets bend away from the normal when the light rays is travelling from denser medium to rarer medium.

Reflection: It is the phenomenon in which the light rays bounce back from the surface without getting absorbed.

Therefore, the correct option is "Forces act on the particles to push or pull them from one medium to another".
