Question

Why is the sky blue?not pink?

Answer 1

light specktrum

Answer 2

the Sky is blue due to light being refracted by nitrogen molecules in the sky.

grass is green because of a  substance in it that reflects green light faster then the other colours.

white things appear white because all light colours are reflected at the same speed and black things appear black because the ligh colourst are absorbed by the object

Answer 3

" Cos god was a man and he liked blue "

Answer 4

Answer 5

It has to do with the absorbtion of light. When light passes through the atmosphere, red light is absorbed and makes the sky blue.

If the atmosphere was to absorb blue light then the sky would appear red.

Think thats how it works

Answer 7

okay, the sky is made up of all the colours of the rainbow it's just that you normally can't see them  and your very wrong the sky can be pink and red and yellow and all shades of orange( just look at an amazing sunset) It's all due to water droplets in the atmosphere the light from the sun shines through these but has to bend due to the pear shape of a water droplet (refraction) this is why we can see rainbows in the sky after a summer rain shower when the atmosphere is saturated with water droplets  the sun shines through and bends because of the shape of the droplet and is reflected so we can see the rainbow, the rest of the time we mainly see the blue because there is less water droplets in the atmosphere but the truth is that we can see all the colours of the spectrum in the sky depending on the position of the sun and the moisture in the atmosphere.
