Question
The diagram shows light interacting with an object.
A blue box has 3 black arrows pass from left to right to its left surface, which they strike at a shallow angle. The arrows then become lines, which move through the box at a different angle. The arrows reemerge as arrows from the right side at the same angle at, which they first struck the box.
Which object is the light most likely striking?
a window
a mirror
a plaster wall
a steel beam

a window
Reason: the rays pass into and through the box and exit on the other side at the same angle — behavior of refraction through a transparent slab (glass window) with parallel faces. A mirror would reflect, and plaster or steel are opaque or scattering, not transmitting straight rays.
