Does a pencil remain the same when it is dipped in a glass of water?
Physically, the pencil remains a straight pencil. Optically, due to the refraction effect of water, the pencil will appear to be bent.
What is the conclusion of broken pencil?
-the pencil looks broken & bent in water. - the pencil looks bent, because of the refraction of light, that causes that to happen. -pencil looks really thick, in water.

Why does a pencil looks broken when seen from the side of drinking glass with water?
As water is a denser medium compared to air refraction occurs. Refraction causes the light to be bent before reaching our eyes. Hence, pencil looks broken.

Why does this pencil appear broken at the boundary between the air and water as view from the side of a glass of water?
due to refraction If the pencil is vertical, then it shouldn't look broken.
Why does a pencil appear bent in a cup of water?
This is due to apparent shift in the position of pencil when viewed from a rarer to denser medium. This is also on account of refraction of light.
