Light refracting through the water acts like a magnifying glass.
Objects appear larger and closer underwater due to the refraction of light. Light waves bend when they pass from one medium (air) to another (water), causing the underwater object to look magnified and closer than it actually is.
The closer streetlights appear brighter than the more distant lights due to the concept of perspective. As objects move farther away, they appear smaller and less intense to our eyes. This change in size and intensity gives the illusion that closer streetlights are brighter.
The mirror is convexed so it sees a larger area. If you see a larger area in the same size mirror then it is reasonable to understand that things are smaller which corresponds to further away. So, you must mentally realize that they are closer.
When you look at objects underwater, the way light refracts and bends creates a unique visual experience, often enhancing colors and details. The density of water compared to air affects how we perceive depth and clarity, sometimes making objects appear larger or closer than they are. Additionally, the movement of water can add a dynamic quality to the view, intensifying the overall impression. This combination of optical effects can lead to a perception of things being more vivid or pronounced underwater.
There is a plane mirror on the driver's side and a convex mirror on the passenger's side. The reason only the passenger mirror is convex is because you are farther away from it. The angular view provided by farther mirror of the same physical size produces a similarly smaller reflected field of view. The convex mirror provides a larger field of view- one that should be comparable to the closer drivers mirror.
Objects underwater appear closer than they actually are due to the refraction of light. Light bends as it passes from water to air, making objects underwater appear closer to the surface than they really are.
When you look underwater, objects appear closer than they actually are due to the refraction of light. The way light moves through water causes objects to appear closer and larger than they really are, which can make judging distance and size more challenging when viewing objects underwater.
Objects appear larger and closer underwater due to the way light bends as it passes from water to air, causing refraction. This distortion in the path of light makes objects underwater seem closer and bigger than they actually are when viewed from the surface.
Objects appear larger and closer underwater due to the refraction of light. Light waves bend when they pass from one medium (air) to another (water), causing the underwater object to look magnified and closer than it actually is.
When light passes from water to air or vice versa, it bends due to the change in density between the two mediums. This bending of light, known as refraction, causes objects underwater to appear closer than they actually are when viewed from the surface. Our brain interprets the refracted light incorrectly, making objects seem closer than their actual position.
This phenomenon, known as underwater refraction, occurs because light travels at different speeds through water and air. When light passes from water to air, it bends away from the normal (perpendicular line), causing objects to appear closer to the surface than they actually are.

Yes, refraction can make objects appear larger and closer when looking through a mask underwater. This is due to the bending of light as it passes from water to air, making objects appear closer than they actually are.

why yes, yes they do.
