Answer:

So, when the rays of light pass from a rarer medium to the denser medium they move towards the normal, the part of stick immersed in water appears to bend when immersed in water and this refraction causes an apparent shift in the position of the part of the road within the water

Answer

The partially immersed stick appears to be bent in water due to refraction of light at the air-water surface.

In simpler words, As you sight at the portion of the pencil that was submerged in the water, light travels from water to air (or from water to glass to air). This light ray changes medium and subsequently undergoes refraction. As a result, the image of the pencil appears to be bent.
