Question

5. Bill is swimming and drops his swim goggles in the pool. He looks from above the top of the water to see where they fell and positions himself directly above the goggles. He dives down to the bottom of the pool with his eyes closed so that the chlorine doesn't burn his eyes. He tries several times to retrieve his goggles but comes up empty handed each time. Which interaction of light is distorting the image of where his goggles appear to be?

Answer 1

The interaction of light that distorted the image of where Bill's goggles appear to be is Refraction.

What happens to the speed of light when it hits water in a swimming pool?

The light slows down when it passes from the less dense air into the water, this slow down of the ray of light which  causes the ray of light to change direction and then the changes the speed of the light that causes refraction.

The swimming pool appears shallow than it appear to be  because the rays of light coming from the bottom of the swimming pool that is refracted by the water making the height of the swimming pool to be above the actual swimming pool bed and there by misleading the observer(Bill).
