Question

describe to atmospheric refraction explain its example

Answer 1

Hey there!!!

=>> You know that Earth's atmosphere has different layers. the densities of these layers decrease as we go higher and higher from the earth's surface. due to difference in their densities, they act as different medium if slightly different refractive indices. so , when a ray of light passes from space ( where ref.index is least) to the earth's atmosphere, it undergoes continues change in ref. index and bends or deviates from its original path giving rise to various phenomenon like twinkling of stars , white colour of the clouds , etc.

hope it Helped!!!!☺️
