Question

Why the sky colour is blue

Answer 1

A clear cloudless day-time sky is bluebecause molecules in the air scatterblue light from the sun more than they scatter red light. When we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colours because the bluelight has been scattered out and away from the line of sight.

Answer 2

the blue color of the sky

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The color of the sky is due to the property of dispersion of light the white light of the color before reaching the earth's surface gets dispersed into its 7 components VIBGYOR the molecules present in the atmosphere are capable of scattering only the light with the shortest wavelength and hence red light won't get scattered

As the light that we get from sun is white in color and due to atmospheric refraction splitting up of white light takes place and the light with the longest wavelength gets lost in the space and blue and violet has the shortest wavelength but the intensity of blue will be much more than that of violet which makes us see the sky blue in color and our eyes are more sensitive to blue light
