Question

When white light is scattered by the dust particles, which color is found to be dominant in the scattered light?

  1. Red
  2. Blue
  3. Green
  4. White

hintHint:

Least wavelength light scatters more

The correct answer is: White


    The color of white light that will have the shortest wavelength will scatter more and that color will be dominant in the scattered light
