Why does a spoon in a cup of water looks bent and discontinuous when viewed through the side of the cup?

when the rays of light falls from the air to water, it bends away from normal,inside water, bends towards normal,when it comes out of water again it ends away from from normal,hence its all because of refraction of light. sabin


Does sound while passing from air to water also bend towards normal?

The law of refraction is a general result of plane waves traveling from one medium to another. Consider light. The speed of light in water is LESS than its speed in air, and it bends toward the normal (refracts). The speed of sound, however, is GREATER in water than it is in air, thus its "index of refraction" is less than one (i.e. sound bends away from the normal when traveling from air to water).

Why the ray of light bends away normal or towards normal when it passes from one medium to another?

What is a plant's movement away from or toward a stimulus?
