A beam of light passing through a fog of water droplets scatters due to the particles in the fog. This scattering causes the light to be diffused in different directions, creating a hazy or blurred appearance.
No, a beam of light passing through a compound is not visible unless there are particles or impurities present that scatter or reflect the light. In a pure compound, light passes through without any significant interaction, making it invisible to the naked eye.

The beam of light from a flashlight appears straight in heavy fog because the water droplets in the fog scatter the light in all directions, making it visible in a straight line within the beam's path. This diffused light creates the appearance of a straight beam even though the light is actually dispersing in multiple directions.
Light passing through fog will scatter in all directions due to the water droplets suspended in the air. This scattering causes the light to be diffused, reducing visibility. The thicker the fog, the more scattering occurs, making objects appear less sharp and clear.
Yes, the sunlight passing through a mist or fog showing a beam of light is an example of the Tyndall effect. It occurs when light scatters in all directions by particles in a medium, making the beam of light visible.

In order to be seen, light must reach the eye. Since laser light is coherent, it travels only along its line of propogation, so there is no light to be viewed from the side of the beam. However, when a laser beam passes through fog, it is reflected off of tiny particulate droplets of water in the fog (or smoke particles in smoke), so is diffused in all directions and can be observed. In order to be seen passing through water, there must be suspended particles in the water from which the light can be reflected. The beam should not be visible as it passes through perfectly pure water.

The Tyndall effect is the scattering of light by colloidal particles in a transparent medium. This phenomenon causes the particles to become visible as they scatter light, creating a visible beam of light passing through the medium. The Tyndall effect can be observed in systems such as smoke, fog, or colloidal solutions.
Unless you have fog lights which are specifically designed for the purpose you are better of using your low beam. As using the high beam will tend to bounce light back at you causing you not to be able to see as far into the fog and being less able to discern oncoming objects and lights.Low beam headlights, low beam headlights & fog lights or just fog lights unless its night time.lower headlightsLow beams, fog lights or both.

In fog, the water droplets scatter the light in all directions. The beam appears straight because the individual water droplets scatter the light particles in a way that causes them to still travel in the same general direction as the original beam.
Fog Lights, but they usually use 2 versions of fog lights. A "pencil beam" and "driving Light". That is why they usually have 4 extra lights 2 of each. The Pencil beam is a direct narrow beam used to see farther down the road and a driving light is a wide beam to see the sides of the road directly in front of you.
