MCQ
The colour of scattered light depends on.
  • A
    Size of scattering particles.
  • B
    Wavelength of light.
  • C
    (Both (a) and (b).
  • D
    None of these.
✓

Answer

  1. Both (a) and (b).

Explanation:

The colour of the scattered light depends on the size of the scattering particle. Very fine particles scatter mainly blue light while particles of larger size scatter light of longer wavelengths i.e. red colour.
