Rayleigh scattering is mainly depends upon wavelength and mie scattering is less depend on wavelenth
The Rayleigh scattering principle is ascribed to the optical phenomenon that is associated by particles that are smaller than the wavelength of light. It was named after the British physicist Lord Rayleigh.
According to RAYLEIGH scattering intensity is inversely proportional to the fourth power of wavelength so blue violet and indigo has shorter wavelength and more intensity when it gets scattered our eyes is sensitive to blue colour so sky appears blue to our eyes not violet or indigo
No. The speed of light is the same for long wave and short wave light. c=fw where w is the wavelength and f is the frequency. The speed c is a constant. The frequency is different for different wavelengths. High frequency for short waves and low frequency for long waves.
The blue light is scattered by the air molecules in the atmosphere (referred to as Rayleigh scattering). The blue wavelength is scattered more, because the scattering effect increases with the inverse of the fourth power of the incident wavelength.
Rayleigh scattering is a phenomenon where light is dispersed or scattered in all directions when it encounters particles or molecules that are much smaller than the wavelength of the light. This scattering is responsible for the blue color of the sky during the day, as shorter blue wavelengths are scattered more than longer wavelengths.
No the greenhouse effect regulates earth's average temperature. Rayleigh scattering explains why the sky is blue.
Rayleigh waves are a type of Surface wave. Surface waves occur when Secondary waves and Primary waves reach the Surface of the Earth's crust during an earthquake. Surface waves cause the most damage.
Rayleigh scattering.
The scattering of light really is called scattering. If you are referring to a scattered reflection this can be called a diffuse reflection. Are you asking about different types of scattering such as Rayleigh scattering? Rayleigh scattering is an elastic type of scattering most well known for the blue color of the sky.
Yes, scattering does cause the sky to get blue. Yes, Rayleigh Scattering makes the sky blue.
