HEY GUYS

EXPALIN THE FORMATION OF MIRGE IN DETAIL BY TOTAL INTERNAL REFLECTION
ONE DOUBT HOW COULD IT BE THE VIRTUAL IMAGE OF THE SKY...???????????​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mirages happen when the ground is very hot and the air is cool. The hot ground warms a layer of air just above the ground. When the light moves through the cold air and into the layer of hot air it is refracted (bent). A layer of very warm air near the ground refracts the light from the sky nearly into a U-shaped bend.

Answer 2

Answer:

Mirage is an optical illusion caused by the phenomenon of total internal reflection of light. ... As the light get refracted it reaches to a point where the light tends to form 90 degree angle. No more refraction takes place when it reaches 90, besides all the light get reflected back.
