Question 7
7.
A student conducting an investigation with light had the question shown.
Based on this question, which of the following could be the student’s hypothesis?
I think the water magnifies their legs making them look bigger.
Do my legs look bent while standing in the water?
I know that refraction is the bending of waves.
If people stand in the water, then their legs will look more bent than when they stand on the sidewalk.
