Why a rod immersed partially in a transparent liquid appears to be bent at the surface of the liquid?
When light travels from one medium to another (e.g. from air to a liquid), it changes speed and direction. This causes the light rays to bend or refract at the interface between the two mediums. This change in direction can make the rod appear bent at the surface of the liquid when viewed from outside.

In which direction does light oscillate if it is reflected off a shiny transparent surface?
Light oscillates in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the shiny transparent surface when it is reflected. This is known as the normal direction.
Does an object that is more dense than the fluid on which it is immersed floats to the surface?
No, an object that is more dense than the fluid it's immersed in will sink to the bottom. Objects float when they are less dense than the fluid they displace, allowing them to be buoyant and stay on the surface.
What occurs when light strikes a transparent surface?
When light strikes a transparent surface, it can be transmitted through the material, absorbed by the material, or reflected off the surface. The amount of light that is transmitted, absorbed, or reflected depends on the properties of the material and the angle at which the light strikes the surface.
Is greased paper transparent?
No, greased paper is not transparent. It is typically translucent or opaque due to the presence of grease or oil that coats the surface of the paper.
What is the difference between a hidden surface and an invisible surface?
A hidden surface refers to a surface that is obscured from view by other objects in a scene, while an invisible surface is one that is intentionally made invisible or transparent, such as a glass pane. Hidden surfaces can be revealed by changing the camera angle, whereas invisible surfaces are typically always transparent.
If a smell - diameter open glass tube is partially immersed in a vessel containing mercury the surface of the mercury inside the tube will be?
convex
What happens when light is directed at a transparent matrial?
It is refracted or 'bent' at the surface of the transparent material. (Obviously, to be directed at a transparent material the light must be travelling through a material that is at least partially transparent.) Please see the link.
Is a mirror surface is transparent translucent or a opaque?
Transparent
Can you explain how infinity mirrors work?
Infinity mirrors work by placing two mirrors facing each other with a partially transparent surface in between. When light is introduced into the mirrors, it bounces back and forth between them, creating the illusion of infinite reflections. The partially transparent surface allows some light to pass through, creating a mesmerizing and seemingly endless visual effect.
In which direction does light oscillate if it is reflected off a shiny transparent surface?
Light oscillates in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the shiny transparent surface when it is reflected. This is known as the normal direction.
Is a mirror's surface transparent?
Not if the mirror is front silvered.
What is the upward force exerted on a body by that into which it is immersed?
When a body is immersed in water , due to pressure difference between upper surface and lower surface of the body an unbalanced upward force acts on a body . This unbalanced upward force is called Buoyancy force
Does an object that is more dense than the fluid on which it is immersed floats to the surface?
No, an object that is more dense than the fluid it's immersed in will sink to the bottom. Objects float when they are less dense than the fluid they displace, allowing them to be buoyant and stay on the surface.

What is the difference between intaglio and cameo surface?
intaglio is when a design is carved into a surface such that it appears as a depression. cameo is when the required design appears as relief left remaining on the surface as the unrequired material is chipped away. it appears raised or as an embossing on the surface.
Is greased paper transparent?
No, greased paper is not transparent. It is typically translucent or opaque due to the presence of grease or oil that coats the surface of the paper.
Why is the upper surface of a leaf transparent?
The upper surface of a leaf is transparent because it lacks chloroplasts which carry out photosynthesis. This allows light to pass through the upper surface and reach the chloroplast-rich cells in the lower side of the leaf where photosynthesis occurs.
