- Why is the sky not purple? - Physics Stack Exchange
The net effect is that the red and green cones are stimulated about equally by the light from the sky, while the blue is stimulated more strongly This combination accounts for the pale sky blue colour It may not be a coincidence that our vision is adjusted to see the sky as a pure hue
- visible light - Why is the sky never green? It can be blue or orange . . .
Can you explain why the colour of the sky passes from blue to orange red skipping altogether the whole range of green frequencies? I have only heard of the legendary 'green, emerald line flash' that appears in particular circumstances Green flashes are enhanced by mirage, which increase refraction is more likely to be seen in stable, clear
- optics - Why does the sky change color? Why is the sky blue during the . . .
Blue light is scattered more than red light, so during the day when we look at parts of the sky that are away from the sun, we see more blue than red During sunset or sunrise, most of the light from the sun comes towards the earth at a sharp angle, so now the blue light is mostly scattered away, and we see mostly red light
- Why is the sky *uniformly* blue? - Physics Stack Exchange
It's not clear why the color should not rapidly change from near blue at horizon to almost red near the Sun position: after all, the atmosphere is thicker along the lines going closer to horizon! The sky seems to be more uniformly blue than the typical explanation suggests
- optics - Why ocean appears blue? - Physics Stack Exchange
Why ocean appear to be Blue? I have got two answers It's surface scatter blue light more Water absorb red ,yellow, green are absorbed and hence what left is bluish shades But I got confused,
- Why is the sky red only in the west but not in the east during sunset . . .
2 So I understand the basic principles of the scattering of light and how the shorter wavelengths like blue and green are scattered more during sunset sunrise, causing us to see mainly the red light If this is the case, how come if you look at the opposite side of the sunset to the east, the sky still appears blue?
- Why cant we see green color in the sky? [duplicate]
Why is the sky never green? It can be blue or orange, and green is in between! (6 answers) Closed last year From sunrise to sunset we can see a variety of colors in the sky For example, during morning the most dominant color is blue whereas during sunset orange,red,yellow and there shades are more dominant
- Why does the sky look blue rather than violet? [duplicate]
Sky looks blue because because our eyes are sensitive to blue colour But when viewed through a camera why don't we see violet of the sky even though we can see violet colour of other pictures take
