Why do things appear larger or closer 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.
When do the waves get bigger?
Waves tend to get bigger when the wind is stronger and has been blowing for a longer duration over a larger expanse of water. Additionally, waves can be influenced by storms, tides, and underwater geography.
Is a beam of light visible as it passes through a colloid?
No, a beam of light is not visible as it passes through a colloid because the particles in the colloid are small and do not scatter light significantly, unlike in a suspension where the particles are bigger. This lack of scattering prevents the beam of light from being visible.
Why are waves bigger in certain places?
Waves can be larger in certain places due to factors such as strong winds, long distances traveled by the wind over the ocean, or underwater topography like underwater peaks or shoals that amplify the waves. Additionally, when waves encounter converging currents or tides in an area, they can also become larger.
What makes waves bigger than other waves?
Several factors can make waves bigger than others, including strong winds that generate larger swells, longer distances for swells to travel and build up, interference from multiple wave sources, and underwater features such as reefs that can amplify wave height.
An iceberg is bigger under water how many times bigger?
Typically, about 90% of an iceberg's mass is submerged underwater, while only about 10% is visible above the surface. This means that the portion of the iceberg below the waterline is roughly nine times larger than the portion that is above water. However, the exact ratio can vary depending on the specific density and shape of the iceberg.
Why is the bottom of an iceberg bigger than the top?
The bottom of an iceberg is bigger than the top due to the principle of buoyancy and the density of ice compared to water. Ice is less dense than liquid water, which allows only a small portion of the iceberg to remain above the surface. Approximately 90% of an iceberg's mass is submerged, creating a larger submerged volume to maintain equilibrium with the weight of the ice above the waterline. This results in the bottom appearing larger than the part that is visible above the surface.

What does The tip of the iceburg mean?
The beginning of something much larger, which may be mostly unseen or unknown. It means there is a lot more to something than you might originally think, just as most of an iceberg lies beneath the surface of the ocean and is not able to be seen.ice is lighter than water so it floats, but only small part is above surface.The saying means that some much bigger problem is hidden behind what is already visible/surfaced.Most of an iceberg is under water. What you see is the top, which is the tip of the iceberg. So there is much more of it than you can't see. So the idiom is used when there is much more to something than you already know or can see. Someone is telling you about a problem. You their problem is bad. In trying to tell you that there is much more to the problem than they have told you so far, they may say that "That is only the tip of iceberg." So the problem is far worse than you already think it is, based on what you know so far.

How do icebergs work?
Icebergs are large pieces of ice that break off from glaciers or ice sheets and float in the ocean. Most of an iceberg is underwater, with only about 10% visible above the surface. They can be dangerous to ships because of their size and the potential for hidden, submerged ice.
Why iceburgs cause danger to ships?
The night of the sinking, the waters were so calm that there wouldn't have been any breaking water visible at the iceberg's base, and the lookout crew members were missing their binoculars which didn't help at all. But if the Titanic wasn't going so fast, their chances of survival would have been really high for it could have survived a head-on collision
What does wax mean.?
"Waxing" is an English word not used much any more, meaning "growing" ... getting bigger as time passes ... which is exactly what the visible portion of the moon appears to be doing, during the two weeks after every New Moon.
