Early sunrise and delayed sunset results in adding about a) 2 min to the day.

Explanation:

  • When light rays travel from one medium to another, it undergoes refraction due to difference in densities of the medium.
  • Density of medium affects the speed of light due to which it either bends away or towards the normal.
  • Earth's atmosphere has different layers with various optical densities.
  • Advancement in time duration of sunrise and sunset is also a consequence of atmospheric refraction caused when sunlight travels through different layers of atmosphere.
  • We tend to see the sun 2 minutes before actual sunrise and continue to see the sun 2 minutes after actual sunset.
  • The apparent position of sun is always some distance above the horizon even if the actual position is below the horizon.
