We will be upgrading the PhET servers on Monday, January 4 at 11:00 PM Mountain Standard Time. We expect that the maintenance will last only 60 minutes. During this time, PhET (http://phet.colorado.edu) may experience periods of unavailability. If you experience persistent issues, please e-mail the PhET Help Desk at phethelp@colorado.edu.
Thanks for your patience during our system maintenance.

Play with the new HTML5 Bending Light sim and explore how light bends when it encounters an interface of two different indices of refraction. See how changing from air to water to glass changes the bending angle. Play with prisms of different shapes and make rainbows.
