Why is the sky blue???

Question

Well, I just posted this to tell everyone Good Night, I hope that you all sleep well, and for those who are just starting the day I hope you have a very nice day and if you're at work, I hope something fun happens!
See you all tomorrow.

Answer 1

cause it is blue


wat u want it black in collor ?????????

Answer 2

The sky is blue partly because air scatters short-wavelength light in preference to longer wavelengths. Combined, these effects scatter (bend away in all directions) some short, blue light waves while allowing almost all longer, red light waves to pass straight through. When we look toward a part of the sky not near the sun, the blue color we see is blue light waves scattered down toward us from the white sunlight passing through the air overhead. Near sunrise and sunset, most of the light we see comes in nearly tangent to the Earth's surface, so that the light's path through the atmosphere is so long that much of the blue and even yellow light is scattered out, leaving the sun rays and the clouds it illuminates red.

Scattering and absorption are major causes of the attenuation of radiation by the atmosphere. Scattering varies as a function of the ratio of the particle diameter to the wavelength of the radiation. When this ratio is less than about one-tenth, Rayleigh scattering occurs in which the scattering coefficient varies inversely as the fourth power of the wavelength. At larger values of the ratio of particle diameter to wavelength, the scattering varies in a complex fashion described, for spherical particles, by the Mie theory; at a ratio of the order of 10, the laws of geometric optics begin to apply.

Answer 3

the blue colour of the sky is using Rayleigh scattering. As effortless strikes by the ambience, lots of the longer wavelengths bypass instantly by. Little of the pink, orange and yellow effortless is tormented by skill of the air. in spite of the indisputable fact that, most of the shorter wavelength effortless is absorbed by skill of the gas molecules. The absorbed blue effortless is then radiated in diverse instructions. It receives scattered everywhere in the sky. Whichever course you look, a number of this scattered blue effortless reaches you. because you be conscious the blue effortless from everywhere overhead, the sky seems blue.

Answer 4

Transmitted light (from the sun, light bulbs, fire, etc) is made up of a spectrum of colors. The longest wavelengths of light are on the red end of the spectrum and the shortest wavelengths are on the blue/violet end of the spectrum. When transmitted light such as sunlight enters our atmosphere it collides with the oxygen and nitrogen atoms. The color with the shorter wavelength is scattered more by this collision. Because violet and blue are the shortest wavelengths the sky appears to be violet / blue. But because our eyes are more sensitive to blue light than they are violet light, we perceive the sky as blue.

Answer 5

Because God made it that way.

I do hope that you enjoyed your sleep last night and that you rested well. It was nice of you to come on here and say the things that you did. I do pray your week is filled with fun, happiness and joy. You keep on keepin on.....until next time...

Answer 6

Buenos Noches. Hasta Manana.

Answer 7

Reflection of the oceans on the Ozone layer.

Answer 8

Don't really know. Why is the one-eyed one-horned flying people eater purple?

Hope you sleep well!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 10

ok...thank you?
(all colors have wavelengths which are diffused by oxygen and nitrogen, since blue is the shortest wave length it diffuses up to 10x more...i'm pretty sure..)

Answer 11

Because the ocean is blue. It reflects or something. I don't remember any more.
