Question

explain the refraction observed in the atmosphere. Give two example of the effect of atmospheric refraction on a small scale in local in environment.

Answer 1

Refraction is observed in the atmosphere...
(1) Through the twinkling of stars.
(2) Formation of a rainbow.
(3)The blue colour of the sky

Twinkling of stars is caused by the passing of light through different layers of a turbulent atmosphere causing refraction..

Rainbow is formed due to the refraction caused by the water droplets in the atmosphere...this is the reason due to which rainbow can be observed after rain showers...

The fine particles in the atmosphere scatter light of shorter wavelength i.e., blue colour more strongly than the light of longer wavelength i.e., red colour.....Therefore the sky appears blue from the surface of the Earth...
