Question

If the wavelength of the light is reduced to one fourth the the amonut of scattering is

Answer 1

Answer:

The amount of scattering is inversely related to the fourth power of the radiation's wavelength (-4). The intensity of Rayleigh scattering varies inversely with the fourth power of the wavelength (-4). So blue light (0.4 µm) is scattered 16 times more than near-infrared light (0.8 µm).
