The refraction of light makes a swimming pool seem <u>shallower</u>.
The swimming pool seems shallower because the rays of light coming from the bottom of the pool do not come with a straight path. The path of light is straight as long as it is in the water.
When lights come out of the water into the air it bents downwards. This bending is called refraction.
Refraction forms a virtual image of the pool and it seems shallower than it actually is to the observer. This only happens when light travels from one transparent medium into another having lower density.
