Answer:
We know that when light of different wavelengths combine to become white. In the noon because the sun is overhead, there is least amount of scattering and hence appears white. When it is overhead, it has lesser air to travel through and scattering results from dust and other particles which will be reduced if the distance to be traveled in air is reduced.

Answer:
Actually, the light coming from the sun is white. But we can see it only at noon. Because at other times sun rays travel more distances and cause scattering of low wavelength rays such as violet, blue, etc. So we see only larger wavelength rays like red, yellow.. But at noon it only travels a smaller distance as compared to other times. So we saw it almost white in color.
