Q: Lemons placed inside a beaker filled with water appear relatively larger in size due to:
  • A. scattering of light
  • B. refraction of light
  • C. reflection of light
  • D. dispersion of light
Correct Answer: Option B - Lemons placed inside a beaker filled with water appear relatively larger in size. Refraction has two associated laws– 1. When light travels from rarer to denser medium, it bends towards normal. 2. When light travels from denser to rare medium it bends away from normal.
