Question
- blue light waves ______.
fly right through the atmosphere, while the other colors scatter, which is why the sky is blue
scatter the least of all the colors
scatter more than other colors
dont scatter very much when they bounce off of molecules
This relates to Rayleigh scattering, where shorter wavelengths (like blue light) scatter much more strongly in Earth's atmosphere than longer visible wavelengths. The sky appears blue because blue light is scattered in all directions by air molecules more than other visible colors.
