उत्तर

A mirage is usually seen:

  • On hot days, especially in deserts or on tar roads
  • When the ground is very hot, and the air just above it is warmer than the air higher up
  • This temperature difference causes light to bend (refraction), creating the illusion of water

One more example:

The twinkling of stars is another example caused by refraction of light in the Earth’s atmosphere.
