A coconut tree appears to be below the water surface when viewed by a sea diver because of refraction phenomenon.

What is refraction of light?

  • It is a particle property of light.
  • Bending of light towards or away from normal according to the densities of medium is called refraction of light.

When light travels from water to air, it bends away from normal because water is denser as compared to air.

Image is formed closer to the surface of water which is why it appears inside it when viewed by a sea diver.
