As light crosses the boundary between air and water, it undergoes refraction.
As light crosses the boundary between air and water, it undergoes refraction.

At the interface between air and water, light undergoes reflection.
At the interface between air and water, light undergoes reflection.

In water, light moves at a higher speed compared to its velocity in air.
In water, light moves at a higher speed compared to its velocity in air.

The temperature of the water in the beaker is higher than that of the surrounding air.
The temperature of the water in the beaker is higher than that of the surrounding air.

The correct answer is: As light crosses the boundary between air and water, it undergoes refraction.
