Re: Is that your final answer?
cycling related this time (if thats allowed?) hehe
Q. How did cycling officials punish Toni Merkens when he blatantly cut off Holland's Arie van Vliet, as he was about to pass him in the 1936 olympic games? its quite an easy one  |

Doesn't it have something to do with the way sunlight bends when it goes through certain gasses in the air? I dunno...just a guess. |

Re: Is that your final answer?
Correct I_are_Baboon*;D
Light is made up of electromagnetic waves. The distance between 2 crests in this wave is called the wavelength. White light contains all the colors of the rainbow. The amount of light scattered for any given colour depends on the wavelength of that colour. All the colors in white light have different wavelengths. Red light has the longest wavelength. The wavelength of blue light is about half that of red light. This difference in wavelength causes blue light to be scattered nearly ten times more than red light. Lord Rayleigh studied this phenomena in detail. It is caused the Tyndall effect or Rayleigh scattering. Lord Rayleigh also calculated that even without smoke and dust in the atmosphere, the oxygen and nitrogen molecules would still cause the sky to appear blue because of scattering. When blue light waves try to go straight through an oxygen and nitrogen molecules, its light is scattered in all directions because of this collision. This scattered blue light is what makes the sky blue. All other colors (with longer wavelengths than blue light) are scattered too. Blue light's short wavelength causes it to be scattered the most. (The shorther the wavelength of the color, the more that color gets scattered by the atmosphere) Actually, violet has the shortest wavelength of all colors. Violet is scattered even more than blue light. However, our eyes are much more sensitive to see blue than violet, therefore we see the sky as blue. Very little visible light is absorbed by the atmosphere. |

Re: Is that your final answer?
I'll continue the saga then...
8 out of the 9 planets rotate anti-clockwise. Which planet rotates clockwise?
