Answers
Answer: Mirage is an optical illusion caused due to total internal reflection of light. The light gets refracted when it passes from cold to hot air and so light bends. ... When the lighter air from cooler areas to warmer areas are refracted and they bent upwards. It usually occurs in deserts.
Explanation: PLEASE MARK ME AS BRAINLIST
An optical (see optical sense 2a) effect that is sometimes seen at sea, in the desert, or over a hot pavement, that may have the appearance of a pool of water or a mirror in which distant objects are seen inverted, and that is caused by the bending or reflection of rays of light by a layer of heated air of varying.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.
