#26: why is spear fishing much more successful for scuba divers than someone spear fishing from above the water? explain your reasoning related to light waves.

The water has an irregular surface so if the light rays fall on top then it will reflect oppositely or in some cases may refract, so the fish will seem a bit smaller or further or closer in anyway, example if u put a straw in water it looks bent but is it ? nope. So the main reason is that it refracts which makes the accuracy lesser which make it difficult.

Liquid. good luck : )
