What are the suns rays called that steam through the clouds?

The sun's rays that stream through the clouds are often referred to as "crepuscular rays." These rays occur when sunlight is scattered by particles in the atmosphere, creating beams of light that appear to radiate from the sun, especially during sunrise or sunset. The phenomenon is enhanced when clouds partially obscure the sun, allowing for a striking visual effect.


Why are clouds pink and blue?

Clouds can appear pink or blue during sunrise or sunset due to the scattering of sunlight by particles in the atmosphere. When the sun is low on the horizon, its light passes through more of the Earth's atmosphere, causing shorter wavelengths (blues) to scatter while longer wavelengths (reds and pinks) remain visible. This creates the colorful effect seen in the clouds.


How do you find how many hours that sun shine in a day if they give you sunrise and sunset hours?

Sunrise is the start of the sun for that day, and sunset is the end of the sun for that day. If you have the sunrise and sunset hours, you can calculate how many hours the sun shine in a day by following formula: sunset - sunrise.Example: sunset 8 am; sunset 5 pm.Since 5 pm is also known as 17:00 hours and 8 am as 8:00 hrs(17:00 hours = noon which is 12:00 + 5:00 = 17:00)You can calculate: 17:00 - 08:00 = 9 hours.

Sometimes when altostratus clouds block the sun at sunset, it can create a beautiful display of vivid colors in the sky known as a "red sky at night." This phenomenon occurs when the sunlight interacts with the clouds, scattering shorter wavelengths of light and allowing the longer red and orange wavelengths to dominate the sky.
