Atmospheric Refraction : You know that the earth is surrounded by a layer of air called the atmosphere. The density of air in the atmosphere is not the same everywhere. In general, it is greatest at the earth's surface and goes on decreasing as we move higher. The refractive index of air depends on its density-higher the density of air, greater its refractive index. Under standard conditions of temperature, humidity, etc., near the earth's surface, the refractive index of air is slightly greater than 1. It decreases with height, and is very close to 1 in the outermost region of the atmosphere. The changes in refractive index of air give rise to many phenomena. For example, a rising current of hot air makes the objects viewed through it seem to flicker. You might have seen this happen as hot air rises above the heated surface of roads on hot summer days or above a large burning stove or chulha.
Hot air has less density, and hence, less refractive index than normal or cold air. At a point in the area above a hot surface, the refractive index keeps on changing as currents of hot air passes through it. So, the amount by which light passing through it is bent keeps on changing. This makes the objects viewed through this area seem to sway or flicker.
Which of the following statement are correct for Atmospheric refraction 1. A rising current of hot air makes the objects viewed through it seem to flicker because of atmospheric refraction. 2. Under standard conditions of temperature, humidity, etc., near the earth's surface, the refractive index of air is slightly greater than 1. 3. It decreases with height, and is very close to 1 in the outermost region of the atmosphere. | |||

When I have not joined Abhyas Academy, my skills of solving maths problems were not clear. But, after joining it, my skills have been developed and my concepts of science and SST are very well. I also came to know about other subjects such as vedic maths and reasoning.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
Abhyas academy is great place to learn. I have learnt a lot here they have finished my fear of not answering.It has created a habit of self studying in me.The teachers here are very supportive and helpful. Earlier my maths and science was good but now it has been much better than before.
In terms of methodology I want to say that institute provides expert guidence and results oriented monitering supplements by requsite study material along with regular tests which help the students to improve their education skills.The techniques of providing education helps the students to asses...
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Third consective year,my ward is in Abhyas with nice experience of admin and transport support.Educational standard of the institute recumbent at satisfactory level. One thing would live to bring in notice that last year study books was distributed after half of the session was over,though study ...

Usually we see institutes offering objective based learning which usually causes a lag behind in subjective examinations which is the pattern followed by schools.
