What is the difference between open- water zone and deep- water zone?
Possible Answer: The open water zone is beneath the littoral zone and is only as light can reach. The deep water zone is below the open water zone where no light reaches
Why does a swimming pool look shallower than it is?
Due to refraction. When light travels through a denser substance, it bends towards the normal, so things appear to be at a different angle, size or depth than they really are.
What adaptation helps red algae to live in deep water?
Red algae have adapted by producing pigments such as phycoerythrin, which allows them to efficiently absorb blue and green light wavelengths typically found in deep water. This enables them to carry out photosynthesis even in low-light environments found at deeper depths. Additionally, their flexible and branched thalli help them withstand strong water currents present in deep water habitats.
What is deep uv led?
Deep UV LED refers to light-emitting diodes that emit ultraviolet (UV) light at wavelengths below 300 nm. These LEDs are used in various applications such as water purification, sterilization, and medical instruments due to their ability to produce short-wavelength UV light.
Do you splash or slither across the knee deep muddy water?
You wade through it. Some splashing is assumed. Slither is not an appropriate term for someone walking.
What happen to the angle of refraction when water pass through deep shallow part of water?
When water passes from a deep part to a shallow part, the angle of refraction increases. This is because the speed of light in water decreases as depth decreases, causing the light to bend more as it enters shallower water.
Why does a swimming pool not look as deep as it is?
because of refraction of light same principle as when you look at a straw in water and it looks broken
What happens when light travels to air to water?
The speed of the light wave slows Some light is reflected off the surface of the water The light that enters the water is "refracted" (the direction of propagation changes due to the different indexes of refraction in air and water) Eventually the water will absorb all the energy of the light if the water is deep enough
Why a pool of water appeaars to be less deep than its actual?
This is due to refraction.
What happens to angle of refraction when water waves pass from deep to shallow part of water?
The angle of refraction increases when water waves pass from deep to shallow water. This is due to the decrease in wave speed as the water becomes shallower, causing the waves to bend towards the normal line.
How does light travel through water?
Light travels through water by passing from one water molecule to another through a process called refraction. This causes the light to change direction slightly as it moves through the water. The speed of light in water is slower than in air, which is why objects underwater appear distorted or shifted.
What does the amount that light refracts depends on?
It depends on the REFRACTIVE INDEX of the Medium it is traveling though. That INDEX is directly dependent on the DENSITY of the Material.
What happens when water hits light?
the lightning vaporizes the water it hits and also charges the water with electricity (don't go swimming)
A wave bending as it passes a point of land is an example of?
refraction. This occurs when the wave changes speed and direction as it moves from one medium to another, in this case from deep water to shallow water near the point of land.
Why can't photosynthetic organisms grow in the deep water zone?
Photosynthetic organisms need light in order to survive. In very deep water there is no light.
How waves move at angles to the direction of movement?
When waves encounter a change in medium or speed, such as passing from deep water to shallow water, they change direction, which is known as refraction. This refraction causes the waves to move at angles to their original direction of movement. The amount of refraction depends on the angle at which the waves hit the interface between the two mediums.
What happens when light waves pass from air into water?
When light waves pass from air into water, the speed of the light waves decreases due to the higher refractive index of water compared to air. This change in speed causes the light waves to bend or change direction, a phenomenon known as refraction. The light waves also partially reflect off the water's surface, which is why you can see a reflection of objects on the water's surface.
