1. Advanced sunrise and delayed sunsetThe sunrise is advanced due to atmospheric refraction of sunlight. Anobserver on the earth sees the sun two minutes before the sun reaches the horizon. A ray of sunlight entering the earth's atmosphere follows a curved path due to atmosphere refraction before reaching the earth.
The Sun is visible to us two minutes before the sunrise (advance sunrise) and two minutes after the Sunset (delayed sunset), because of the bending of the light due to atmospheric refraction. The light from the Sun got refracted by the atmospheric layers and reaches the observer.
