Answer 1

Advanced sunrise phenomenon and is not explained on the basis of scattering of light.

• In our planet earth, we often witness advanced sunrise and even advanced sunset.
• These advanced appearance or disappearance of the sun is occured due to the continuous refraction of the solar light rays by the atmosphere of our planet
• So, the main reason behind the advanced sunrise is the refraction. The scattering of light rays, has no role behind the occurrence of this phenomenon.
