Question

Give scientific reason the bottom of pond appears raised with diagram

Answer 1

Answer:

because the medium changes so the light direction changes

Answer 2

$\large\boxed{\fcolorbox{blue}{yellow} {Answer}}$

1. The rays of light coming from the bottom of a pond bend away from the normal as they travel from water (denser medium) to air (rarer medium).

2. Hence, they appear to come from a point above the actual point from which they come.

Therefore, the bottom of a pond appears raised.
