Typically, it is drain pipes that have bends, variously called J-traps, P-traps, U-traps, or S-bends for their shape. They are designed to prevent drain line smells and sewer gases from returning into the home or business - the bend retains a water level above the lowest point of the bend on both sides. They also provide a slim chance of preventing valuables such as rings from being carried away.

Could the pipes burst if there is a groan when the toilet is flushed?
Yes they can. In general, however, the "groan" is not as bad as the "hammer." When water is suddenly forced through pipes containing a sharp bend, the water can hit the side of the pipe as if it's a wall. The force of the water can burst the pipes. Most modern plumbing fixtures account for this "hammering." But there are lots of old pipes out there too!
Why doesn't the large beam of light bend like 2 beams in the middle of the tank?
The large beam of light doesn't bend because it is traveling straight through the same medium. When light enters a new medium, like water in this case, with a different refractive index, it can bend due to the change in speed. This is known as refraction. The two smaller beams in the middle of the tank, entering from the air into water, experience refraction which causes them to bend.
