Question

A pencil dipped in water appears bent due
to dispersion.
true or false​

Answer 1

true

लक्ष्मीबाई का जन्म वाराणसी जिले के भदैनी नामक नगर में 19 नवम्बर 1828 को हुआ था। उनका बचपन का नाम मणिकर्णिका था परन्तु प्यार से उन्हें मनु कहा जाता था। उनकी माँ का नाम भागीरथीबाई तथा पिता का नाम मोरोपन्त तांबे था। मोरोपन्त एक मराठी थे और मराठा बाजीराव की सेवा में थे।

Answer 2

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The light reaching you from the portion of the pencil inside water seems to come from a different direction, compared to the part above water. This makes the pencil appear to be displaced at the interface.

It appears that when traveling obliquely from one medium to another, the direction of propagation of light in the second medium changes. Due to refraction the immersed part of the pencil appears to be raised and short.

Hence, the statement is false.
