When a beam of light  that is, at first, in air and oriented perpendicular to the surface of a body of water be deflected as a result of transition into water--------It does not deflect , the light direction will not change.

What happens to light when it passes through air?

All materials have what is known as an index of refraction, which is linked to how fast light can travel through the material. As light passes through air and into another clear material (such as glass), it changes speed, and light is both reflected and refracted by the glass.

How does light travel through air and water?

When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.

The Olympic record for a marathon is 2.00 hour 9.00 minute 21.0 seconds if the average speed of the runner achieving this record
iren2701 [21]
(2.00 hours) x (3,600 seconds/hour)  =  7,200 seconds

(9.00 minutes) x (60 seconds/minute)  =  540 seconds

The record time = (7,200 + 540 + 21) = 7,761 seconds

Distance  =  (speed) x (time)

                 = (5.436 m/s) x (7,761 sec)  =<span>  42,188.8 meters
________________________________________________
</span>
The official length of the marathon run is  42,195 meters.
If we divide that by the record time in the question, we get

                       5.4368... m/s .

Rounded to the nearest thousandth, that's  5.437 m/s.

If the question had given the speed as  5.437  instead of  5.436 ,
then we would have calculated the distance to be 

            (5.437 m/s) x (7,761 sec)  =<span>  42,196.6 meters,

4.6 meters closer to the official distance than the answer we did get.
