How do you get diffraction by passing laser through water?
When a laser beam passes through water, it can diffract due to the changes in the refractive index between the air and water. The laser light waves can bend and spread out as they encounter the interface between the two mediums, causing diffraction patterns to form. This phenomena is due to the wave nature of light.
What happens when you shine a laser light into water?
When a laser light is shined into water, the light is refracted due to the change in medium density. Some of the light may also be scattered or absorbed by the water molecules. If the water is clear, you may see a beam of light traveling through the water.
If you wish to spear a blue fish with a red laser beam you should compensate for refraction between the air and water by aiming your laser?
slightly lower than where you see the fish due to light bending at the air-water interface. This will help you target the fish accurately as the light changes direction when passing through different mediums, such as air and water. Adjusting your aim to account for this refraction will help you hit the fish with the laser beam.
What is a beam of light passing through a fog of what?
A beam of light passing through a fog of water droplets scatters due to the particles in the fog. This scattering causes the light to be diffused in different directions, creating a hazy or blurred appearance.
XmcmxjWhy do you only see laser beams through dust or through cloudy water?
The reason we can only see lasers through dust or cloudy water is because our eye can only see light that enters directly into them. When a laser travels across our plane of vision the laser beam is traveling in a straight line, but when it hits the small particles of dust that light is being reflected in an infinite number of directions. A portion of those reflected light rays enter our eyes resulting in what appears to be a laser beam.

Why do lasers appear in smoke or water?
In order to be seen, light must reach the eye. Since laser light is coherent, it travels only along its line of propogation, so there is no light to be viewed from the side of the beam. However, when a laser beam passes through fog, it is reflected off of tiny particulate droplets of water in the fog (or smoke particles in smoke), so is diffused in all directions and can be observed. In order to be seen passing through water, there must be suspended particles in the water from which the light can be reflected. The beam should not be visible as it passes through perfectly pure water.
How is light affected when passing through water?
Light is affected by everything it touches. If it touches a glass of water, it *refracts* (bends).

Can light travel through water?
Yes. As an example, the reason you can see fish in an aquarium or the bottom of a swimming pool is because of the light passing through, or into and out of the water.
Does smoke create rainbows?
Light passing through a transparent medium like glass/water does. Smoke is made of small particles of unburnt carbon, and light passing through is does not get split into a rainbow.

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.
Why cant you see a laser beam if its in pure water?
You can't see a laser beam in pure water because the water is transparent, which allows the light to pass through without scattering. This means that the laser beam doesn't interact with the water molecules in a way that makes it visible to the human eye.
Is battry life is less if torch light passing through water?
The medium through which the emitted light of a torch passes will not affect the battery life of the torch. The battery life of the torch will be the same if you are shining it through air, glass, water, or anything else.
