Advanced sunrise and delayed sunset are phenomena caused due to atmospheric refraction. In this the Sun appears to rise early by 2 minutes and set late by 2 minutes

Answered by priyanshi0436

Answer:

When the sun is slightly below the horizon the light which is coming from the sun travels from less dense to more dense air and refracted downwards. That is why, the sun appears to be raised and can be seen before 2 minutes of the actual sunrise and after 2 minutes of the actual sunset.

It occurs due to atmospheric refraction.
