Question

Visible light, which has a wavelength of between 380 nm and 760 nm, is usually

A.
changed to a different wavelength by the atmosphere.
B.
not fully absorbed by the atmosphere.
C.
completely destroyed by the atmosphere.
D.
fully absorbed by the atmosphere.

Answer 1

not fully absorbed by the atmosphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

Visible light with a wavelength of 380-760 nm will usually not be fully absorbed by the atmosphere. Visible light is most likely to reach Earth's surface or be partially absorbed and scattered by the atmosphere. Other types of radiation, such as infrared radiation and ultraviolet light, are more readily absorbed by the atmosphere.

Answer 2

not fully absorbed by the atmosphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

Visible light with a wavelength of 380-760 nm will usually not be fully absorbed by the atmosphere. Visible light is most likely to reach Earth's surface or be partially absorbed and scattered by the atmosphere.
