What is mirage? Give a reason for its formation.

Answers

Answered by BrainlyBAKA

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.

HOPE this helps you ☺️

Answered by ItzMissLegend

The mirage is caused by the total internal reflection of light at layers of air of different densities.In a desert, the sand is very hot during day time and a result the layer of air in contact with it gets heated up and becomes lighter. The lighter air rises up and the denser air from above comes down.

Hope it helps!!
