Sky blue :D yer

IMPROVEMENTEasy answer blue. which is wrong...

Correct answer; we don't know. we will never be able to tell the correct colour of the sky. We just see it as blue as that is the way the light bounces off it and they way our eyes see it. The light is made up of 7 colours. The short light waves, red orange yellow green, just pass through our sight. as do the long waves, indigo and violet. However blue is just the right frequency for us to see. However it depends on the time of day. but the same rule applies, only certain types of waves are right. At least that is what would make sense. To be honest, the real question is what is the sky?

A blizzard under blue sky?

A blue sky during a blizzard is not unusual. The sun can still shine through the clouds and blue sky can be visible during a snowstorm. This can create a striking contrast between the white snowfall and the bright blue sky.


Is the sky blue a hypothesis?

No. The sky is just as blue as a blue shirt though. Technically an object, such as a shirt or the sky, is not blue. The object just appears to be blue because it absorbs all other colors of the spectrum and reflects blue back which is the same with any other color seen.


Why is the sky and water blue?

The sky is blue because of Rayleigh scattering -- blue photons scatter off air molecules to a large extent, while the other colors travel directly in straight lines from the sun, making the sky appear blue and the sun appear yellow (white minus blue). In space, or on the airless moon, the sky is black and sun is white. It is NOT true that oceans look blue due to sky reflection. Water also scatters blue light, so the explanation of its color is largely the same as that for the sky.


The sky's blue color is caused by?

The sky's blue color is caused by Rayleigh scattering, in which shorter blue wavelengths are scattered more than longer wavelengths by molecules and particles in the Earth's atmosphere. This results in blue light being dispersed in all directions, giving the sky its blue appearance.


Why is the sky blue at daytime?

The sky appears blue during the day because of the way Earth's atmosphere scatters sunlight. Blue light from the sun is scattered in all directions by the gases and particles in the atmosphere, making the sky appear blue to us.
