During scattering of light, the amount of scattering is inversely proportional to of wavelength of light.
- A Cube
- B Square
- C Fourth power
- D Halt
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Fourth power
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
During scattering of light, the amount of scattering is inversely proportional to fourth power of wavelength of light. That is,
\( I \propto \frac{1}{\lambda_{4}} \)
This is called Rayleigh Scattering.
\( I \propto \frac{1}{\lambda_{4}} \)
This is called Rayleigh Scattering.
