Will sound waves that move from a zone of warmer water into a zone of cooler water will bend toward the cooler water?

Yes, sound waves moving from warmer water to cooler water will bend toward the cooler water. This phenomenon occurs because sound travels more slowly in cooler water than in warmer water. As the sound wave enters the cooler region, its speed decreases, causing the wave to refract and bend toward the cooler area. This bending is a result of the change in temperature and the associated change in sound speed.
