The UV rays of the sun do not get magnified in water, but the part of you that is out of the water can get burned faster than if you were on dry land. This is because the water's surface reflects the radiation.
The UV rays do benefit us. They are used in water filters.
UV RAYS!!! The sun is the major natural source of UV Rays. UV Rays are invisable. They are still a form of light rays. UV stands for Ultra Violiet Rays. These (UV) rays cause sunburn and damage the eyes. Overexposure of UV Rays can cause serious skin cancer. UV Rays, however, can have useful effects, too. They can destroy harmful organisms.

UV rays
UV energy is in UV rays. These are high energy rays.
The UV rays are of three types. they are UV-A, UV-B, UV-C.
The rays filtered by the ozone are UV rays. The UV rays are extremely dangerous radiations. These radiations can cause skin cancer to living organisms.Ultraviolet(UV) rays
When the sun's UV rays reflect off surfaces like water, sand, or snow, they can increase the risk of sunburn and skin damage. It's important to wear sunscreen and protective clothing to minimize exposure to reflected UV rays and reduce the risk of developing skin cancer.
Ozone affects UV rays. These are harmful rays of the sun.
Water can magnify UV rays by reflecting and refracting them, increasing their intensity. This can lead to a higher risk of sunburn and skin damage when exposed to sunlight near water.
UV rays penetrate water and can harm aquatic life by damaging their DNA, causing mutations, and affecting their growth and reproduction. UV rays can also disrupt the food chain by harming phytoplankton and other organisms at the base of the food web.
No it can't poison water. If that was the case nothing could live in or around water. Animals drink it. People drink it. Trees grow around and in water. Fish swim it. In fact, it's the opposite. UV rays can purify contaminated water. The SODIS method (look it up) is used in many countries around the world where clean water is not available. Water is put into a clean PET bottle and left in the sun for 6 hours. After that the water is clean and safe to drink.
Yes, UV light and UV rays refer to the same thing - ultraviolet radiation. UV radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye. UV light or UV rays are terms used to describe this form of radiation.
