No. The physics is based in the way light is scattered in the air, and it is discussed in the question, "Why is the sky blue?" That question is linked below. AnswerIf that were true, there wouldn't be any blue skies in Kansas. And there are!
Actually, the coloring in the sky that you observe is a result of light rays being scattered by air and anything in it. The rays of light with the longer wavelengths, such as reds and yellows, tend to travel more easily through the atmosphere, while the rays with the shorter wavelengths, like blues and indigos, tend to be dispersed more easily. These more easily dispersed shorter light rays are what give the sky its blue color.
The color emitted by the refraction of gasses in the atmosphere is what causes the sky to be the color it appears. The protective ozone layer which is thicker in some places than it is in others, reflects blue when exposed to the suns radiation. So ozone gas expressed as O3 is responsible in large part to the blue sky. The dust particles mentioned in the previous paragraph are responsible for the various hues and colors we see such as the red sunsets.
This effect is known as Rayleigh scattering named after the scientist who discovered it , Lord Rayleigh
A blue t-shirt appears blue in white light because it absorbs most colors of light in the visible spectrum and reflects back predominantly blue wavelengths. This means that the blue wavelengths are not absorbed by the dye in the fabric but instead are reflected off the fabric and into our eyes, making us perceive the t-shirt as blue.
It absorbs all colors in the white light, except for the blue, which it reflects and scatters, and it winds up appearing blue to our eyes. That's a big part of the reason why we call it "a blue box".
your shirt appears blue because that is the color that is being reflected. for example, if a ray of light (the sun) is shining on a shirt then all of the colors of a rainbow are shining on the shirt. all of the colors are being absorbed by the shirt accept blue because blue is being reflected off the shirt and your eye sees the blue being reflected and the shirt appears blue. i hope this helps, it is a confusing subject.
A mirror image is not formed when light reflects off white paper because the surface of the paper is diffuse, scattering light in many directions. A mirror image is only formed when light reflects off a smooth and highly reflective surface that preserves the angle of incidence.
Light reflects off a flat mirror because the surface is smooth and polished, causing light rays to bounce off at equal angles of incidence and reflection. This results in the image of an object being reflected as if it were on the other side of the mirror.
because the sky reflects off it
The color of the ocean is typically blue due to the way it absorbs and reflects sunlight. The depth of the water, the presence of algae, and the composition of sediments can also affect the color, sometimes causing variations such as green or turquoise hues.
See the sky reflects its blue color so it appears to to u as shades of blue Hey that rhymed! :D
They are blue because the sky's color is reflected in the water. The water is actually clear, but looks blue because of the sky. During cloudy days and storms, the color is more grayish than blue. It reflects the colour of the sky. It is blue because of the sky. It reflects off the sky.
There are several reasons - the first has to do with the reflection of sunlight. Blue wavelengths of light bend more easily, and are reflected off the surface of the water, thus making it appear blue. The water also reflects the color of the sky, so that on cloudy days, it seems more gray than blue. The amount of suspended matter in the water also plays a role, as does the position of the observer.
it reflects off the sky. like usually in deep forests, the water is a greenish tint. that's the best explanation i have for it.
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.
Because light reflects off objects
Because the sun reflects off the ovean and on to the shore, increasing the amount of sun that the land usually gets.

Black because if a red light reflects off the blue surface there is no reflection, so the surface looks black.
