Why is the sky blue? ....??
Answers
Answer:
The sky is blue due to a phenomenon called Raleigh scattering. This scattering refers to the scattering of electromagnetic radiation (of which light is a form) by particles of a much smaller wavelength. ... These shorter wavelengths correspond to blue hues, hence why when we look at the sky, we see it as blue.
Explanation:
• The scattering caused by these tiny air molecules (known as Rayleigh Scattering) increases as the wave length of light decreases
• Violet and blue light have the Shortest wavelength and red light has the longest
• When the sun is low in the sky during sunset and Sunrays the light has to travel further through the Earth's atmosphere
• We don't see the blue light because it get Scattered away, but the red light isn't scattered very much so the sky appears red
