Oil is optically denser than water. When sound/light goes from optically denser medium to optically rarer medium, their velocity increase and they moves away for normal.
Appropriate Answer:
The sound wave speeds up and bends

As, In optics we learnt that light undergoes refraction when travels from medium of different densities. Similarly, Sound also follows the law of refraction.
- It is due to the change of speed of water in different mediums, This makes it speed up or down depending upon the medium and their densities.
