atmospheric refraction
Answers
Explanation:
Atmospheric Refraction...
Refraction which takes place from Earth's atmosphere is called atmospheric refraction.
Different layers of Earth's atmosphere have different densities. Hence when light passes from it , it gets refracted .
Application of atmospheric refraction.
Twinkling of stars.....
In fact stars does not twinkle , they appear twinkling bcz of atmospheric refraction . When the star light passes from Earth's atmosphere it gets refracted and the star twinkles.
Planet does not twinkle bcz they don't have the light of their own . They are closer to the Earth , they are extending source of light and they nullify twinkling effect.
The refraction of light caused by the earth's atmosphere is called atmospheric refraction.
When the sun rays passing through the atmosphere suffer refraction known as atmospheric refraction.
It is caused by the difference is the dinsities of air in the differnt layes of the atmosphere.
Atmospheric refraction is a change in the refractive index of light waves or rays due to differences in elevation in atmospheric density.
