It has a short and choppy wavelength and is optimum for particles to scatter (It doesn't have a too short or too long wavelength which makes it optimum)

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears blue because light scatters blue the most and the sun emits blue light the most (more than violet or indigo). Blue is also perfect to scatter because it's short and choppy.

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears blue because the blue light has a short wavelength( not too short such as violet) and is scattered by the particles in the atmosphere.

# data[].attributes.body
Gas particles in the atmosphere scatter blue light because it is the most optimum to scatter. It has a relatively short wavelength and it is plentiful compared to indigo and violet meaning the latter two cannot be seen in the sky

# data[].attributes.body
This is because of the sun's position in the day & night. It is in such a way that light needs to travel through more distance in the atmosphere. Red has a high wavelength which makes it faster to let the gas molecules scatter red.

# data[].attributes.body
The blue light has a short wavelength, and is scattered by particles in our atmosphere. The wavelength is just right for the particles to scatter. This is why the sky appears blue.

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears red during sunrise and sunset because the blue light is scattering less during those times because of the position of the sun so red, yellow and orange light pass through and get scattered in the sky.

# data[].attributes.body
Blue light rays are scattered by the gas particles in the atmosphere because of the short and choppier wavelength. It doesnt have a too short or too long wavelength, and hence is optimum for the the gas particles to scatter largely.

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears blue because the gas particles in the atmosphere scatter the white light emitted from the sun, and the colour that scatters the most is blue.

# data[].attributes.body
It gets scattered the most by the particles in the air. Also because it is short and choppy. Another reason why is because the sun emits the most blue light.

# data[].attributes.body
This is because the colour red scatters the least therefore it catches the most attention

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears blue because when White light enters the Earth's atmosphere, Blue light with the most preferable wavelength interacts and refracts with the gas molecules in the atmosphere. This causes the sky to appear blue in colour.

# data[].attributes.body
This is because it scatters the least due to a high wavelength which makes it easier to see even on a foggy or misty day.

# data[].attributes.body
Blue light has a short wavelength and it is scattered by the gas molecules in our atmosphere.

# data[].attributes.body
Red light scatters the least so it's more visible than the other colors. It also stands out because of this and people can see red more properly and continue their actions accordingly.

# data[].attributes.body
The sun's positions makes the suns rays pass through more atmosphere meaning the blue light is scattered less and the red/yellow/orange light penetrate through because they have more wavelength and they can penetrate through the atmosphere

# data[].attributes.body
Question - Why does a glass prism disperse white light?

Answer - It refracts due to a change in medium (optical density). Each color has different properties, wavelengths & energy levels which makes it refract differently/amount of bend according to the corresponding energy level.

# data[].attributes.body
The wavelength of blue is the optimum for the atmosphere's gas particles to scatter the most. Thus, blue light is scattered the most in the atmosphere of earth.

# data[].attributes.body
The sun changes position during the day and night, and the light rays travel in a different way. Red gets scattered the most when the sun is in this position, which is why the sky appears red during sunrise & sunset. On the other hand, blue light get scattered the most during the day.

# data[].attributes.body
blue light has a short wavelength and is scattered by paricles in our atmosphere

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears red during sunsets and sunrise because of its position. The blue light is being scattered away from the earth, so the waves with the longest wavelengths( which are red and orange) are scattered onto earth.

# data[].attributes.body
the sky appears blue because the colour blue has a short wavelength, (not as short as indigo) so it is scattered the most.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is the sky not violet?

The sky isn't violet because the sun doesn't emit a lot of violet lights and violet's wavelength is very short and not suitable to scatter as much as blue

# data[].attributes.body
This is because the sun is at a position in which the blue light just scatters everywhere, the red, orange and yellow light however scatter the least so they are visible during sunrise and sunset

# data[].attributes.body
The light scatters blue the most

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears red during sunrise and sunset because the position of the sun is different and the red light gets scattered more because its wave length is the largest.

# data[].attributes.body
It appears red because of the suns position during the early day and night. Light needs to travel through more distance in the atmosphere. Red has a higher wavelength which makes it faster to let the molecules to scatter RED

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears ed during Sunrise and Sunset because the angle of the sun to Earth causes the blue light to have a tough time coming which ultimately leads in all blue light getting scattered. Therefore, red, orange and yellow refract with the gas particles and make the sky appear a mixture of them together.

# data[].attributes.body
Red is used to make danger signals because its scattered least in the atmosphere, so its more eye catching and doesn't blend. This makes it easier to see during foggy days.

# data[].attributes.body
Because of the position of the sun the blue light is scattered less then red

# data[].attributes.body
The colour red has the longest wavelength and gets scattered the least. Hence, it is most identifiable, which is why red is used in stop signs.

# data[].attributes.body
Red light has the most wavelength and therefore cannot be affected as much as lights with shorter wavelength

# data[].attributes.body
Because it scatters the least

# data[].attributes.body
Red scatters the least, hence it wont dissiapte into the atmosphere fast, hence it catches one's attention FASTEST. Therefore it is used in emergencies and danger signals

# data[].attributes.body
Red scatters the least among all the colours and is the most clearest to see. Hence, if we use red we can make sure people can see the stop signs clearly without the light scattering.

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears to be blue because blue light is the most optimum. It has a short wavelength but it's not to short like violet.

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears red during sunrise and sunset because red and orange refract with the gas particles in our atmosphere.

# data[].attributes.body
Red is used for making danger signals because it scatters the least and hence it will be more visible.

# data[].attributes.body
question-why doesnt violet get scattered?

ans: it travels too fast, and has a shorter wavelength than blue, which isnt optimum for the gas particles to scatter.

Extra question-Does melanin play a role in absorbing/reflecting light in our body, does it help perceive the colour of one's skin?

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears red in the evening because of the position of the sun in the evening, blue lights wave length is too little and the gas particles scatter it too much because of the position of the sun, thus red, yellow and orange scatter at the optimum amount in the evening.

# data[].attributes.body
The gas particles in the atmosphere scatter blue light as it's short and choppy and optimum compared to violet or indigo.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is the sky dark in the night?

None of the VIBGYOR light is able to come to Earth and hence we just see the dark space. The gas molecules don't react with anything as nothing comes.

# data[].attributes.body
'Why does the light not scatter in air"?

This is because the optical density of air allows all the rays to mix together and not go separate ways because of their wavelengths.

# data[].attributes.body
Red scatters the least in the spectrum, thus it is more visible to our eye because the atmosphere's gas particles scatter red the least.

# data[].attributes.body
How is the wave length related to the color of light?

Black is still a color so what is colorless?

How do colors mix to form different colors, why do they mix?

# data[].attributes.body
Red is used for danger signals as it gets scattered the least, so it is visible.

# data[].attributes.body
The sky appears red during sunrise and sunset because of the positioning of the sun. The sun's rays pass through more atmosphere which means the blue light is scattered less and colors like reed, orange and yellow penetrate because they have longer wavelength.

# data[].attributes.body
When is something black?

When that object absorbs all the colors of the rainbow and doesn't reflect any

# data[].attributes.body
Red scatters the least due to its long wavelength, which means it can be seen clearly.

# data[].attributes.body
Question-why is white light split into different colours.

Answer-This is because when the while light enters a different medium (example-water, glass, diamond) the refractive angles for each wave(colour) is different therefore they split/scatter into 7 different colours.

# data[].attributes.body
Light doesn't scatter in air because of the optical density of air, which allows rays to mix instead of separate.

# data[].attributes.body
Why do certain objects have certain colours? How do we perceive them?

Example: A leaf appears green because all the other colours are absorbed, except for green, which is why we see only green.
