Answer 1

$\color{red}\huge\bold\star\mathcal{Answer}\star$

Mirages happen when the ground is very hot and the air is cool. 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.

An example of a mirage is when you believe you see water or a ship in the desert when it isn't really there. An optical phenomenon in which light is refracted through a layer of hot air close to the ground, giving the appearance of there being refuge in the distance.
