What is occurring when a light wave diffracts?

question 5 options:

a. the light wave is bending around an obstacle or through a barrier.

b. the light wave is bouncing off of a smooth surface.

c. the light was is absorbing.

d. the light wave is bending when it goes from gas to liquid.

The light wave is bending around an obstacle or through a barrier shows diffraction.

Explanation :

Light is one of the forms of energy. It enables us to see objects clearly. It shows many phenomena like the reflection of light, refraction, interference, diffraction etc.

The light rays bend when it passes through a narrow opening or obstacles. The essential condition for the diffraction is that the size of an obstacle should be comparable to the wavelength of light.    

Hence, the correct option is (a) " The light wave is bending around an obstacle or through a barrier".

object 2 because all the other ones are wrong

energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means. do not understand what you are asking but hope this
