Question

Why Is the Sky Blue?

Answer 1

hi,

the colour blue scatters more than other colour because it has less wavelength as compared to other colours like red. so, the blue scatters faster in the sky.

Blue light is scattered in all directions by the tiny molecules of air in Earth's atmosphere. Blue is scattered more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue skymost of the time.

hope it helps/.........

Answer 2

Hey there!

Here's your answer : >>>>

• The light from sun has to travel a long distance of the earth's atmosphere before reaching us.
•As light travels through the atmosphere it gets scattered in different directions by the air molecules present in its path.
•The blue light due to its short wavelength is scattered more as compared to the red light of long wavelength.
•Thus the light reaching our eye directly from Sun is rich in red colour while the light reaching our eye from all other directions is the scattered blue light .
•Therefore the sky in direction other than the direction of sun is seen blue.
