Refraction makes a ruler in a cup of warter look broken?
When light passes from air into water, it changes speed and direction due to differences in optical density, resulting in refraction. This change in direction can make objects appear bent or broken when viewed through a transparent medium like water. In reality, the ruler remains intact but is visually distorted due to the refraction of light.
Why the coin was seen when water is poured into the transparent cup?
When water is poured into a transparent cup with a coin at the bottom, the light gets refracted as it passes through the water and into the air, causing the coin to appear raised and no longer hidden by the water. This phenomenon is called refraction and it makes the coin visible even though it's at the bottom of the cup.
Why can you see the coin once water has been added to the cup?
When water is added to the cup, it refracts light in a way that causes the coin to appear shifted from its original position due to the bending of light rays. This phenomenon is called refraction. As a result, the coin becomes visible even though it is actually submerged below the water's surface.
