A water tank appears shallower when it is viewed from top due to
-
- rectilinear propagation of light
- reflection
- total internal reflection
- refraction
- rectilinear propagation of light
Correct Option: D
This phenomenon is because of refraction of light. The lines of sight intersect at a higher position than where the actual rays originated. This causes the water to appear shallower than it really is.
