We mostly read in newspaper, that few students went for picnic, but while boating one or two drowned in river. Situation below can be the reason for this. Situation- while boating with parents, a child saw a beautiful fish in the river or lake. He/she tried to catch it, thinking that it is very closer to him/her.
But situation became worse when he/she drowned in the river/lake instead of catching it .Name the phenomenon that shows the apparent position of fish, explain it.

Explanation:

This is all to do with the refraction of light and real and apparent depth. As the light from the fish leaves the water it bends away from the normal (right angled line to the surface). This makes the fish appear to be nearer to the surface.

Answer:

It is because of refraction of light of the fish. As the light from the fish enters to our eyes we can see the apparent position of the fish .

As the same if we put a marble into the water , we can see it larger in size and its apparent position. As same the best example for the refraction is stars and also the sun can be the examples.

Thank you ❣️
