Question

The clear sky appears blue because Single Correct Objective A)Blue light gets absorbed in the atmosphere B)Ultraviolet radiations are absorbed in the atmosphere C)Violet and blue light get scattered more than all other colours by the atmosphere D)Light of all other colours is scattered more than the Violet and blue colour lights by the atmosphere

Answer 1

The clear sky appears blue because Voilet and blue light get scattered more than all other colours by the atmosphere.

 ${\pink{\sf{\underline{Extra\:Data}}}}$

• Gases and particles in earth's atmosphere scattering sunlight in all directions.
• Blue light is scattered more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves.
• Scattering of light is the phenomenon that causes the sky to appear blue.
• The clear sky appears blue becauseof the way the atmosphere interacts with sunlight.
• As we know different layers of atmosphere contain the different size of particles.
• Particles scatter the colour of light which have lesser wavelength.
• The scatters present in the lower layers of the atmosphere are more effective in scattering blue light.
