There are at least eight questions here. It is not likely that anyone
will want to answer eight questions in order to earn $1.50. I suggest
that you repost each of these items as a separate question.

I don't understand all of the question. When you say "Explain how
polarized sunglasses work better and their better," what do you mean
by "their better"?

basically, mirages are formed from the surface warming up the air and
that hot air rising through colder air.  the light is reflected
causing u to see a mirage.  it works the opposite way too.  cold air
from the atmostsphere dropping through warm air.  this is explained at
http://www.encyclopedia.com/html/m1/mirage.asp
