Question 1 :
The path light bends as it travels through air and into glass.
What is light?
The light is the ray form of energy obtained from the Sun.
The path of light will look like bended when it has crossed the interface of two medium.
As. the light ray falls on the surface of glass travelling through air, the ray appears to bend after refraction.
Thus, the path of light bends as it travels through air and into glass.

Question 2 :
According to the wave theory of light, the energy of radiation depends only on the intensity or wave amplitude (brightness), not the frequency (what type of light; e.g red light or green light; visible light or gamma) According to the particle theory of light states the energy of radiation depend only on the frequency

Answer:

here is answer!

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

Light bends when it transitions from air to glass due to differences in refractive indices. It follows an incident path in air, refracts at the air-glass boundary, and continues through the glass as a transmitted ray. Total internal reflection may occur if the angle of incidence is large enough.

Question 2:

Brightness in the wave model of light is determined by the amplitude and intensity of the light waves. Higher amplitudes and intensities correspond to brighter light. When multiple light waves overlap, their amplitudes add up, resulting in increased brightness
