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.
