Heat cannot be refracted in the same way that light can. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes through different medium. Heat, on the other hand, is the transfer of thermal energy from a higher temperature object to a lower temperature object.

How do you explain how light can be reflected refracted transmitted or absorbed?

Light can be reflected when it bounces off a surface, refracted when it changes direction while passing through a different medium, transmitted when it passes through a material without being absorbed, and absorbed when its energy is taken in by a material, converting it into other forms of energy such as heat.

What causes heat shimmer?

Heat shimmer, also known as heat haze, is caused by the refraction of light due to temperature gradients in the air. When the air near the ground is significantly warmer than the air above it, the light passing through these layers of air gets refracted and distorted, creating the shimmering effect that we see.
