Assertion : The blue colour of sky is on account of scattering of sun light. Reason : The intensity of scattered light varies inversely as the & fourth power of wavelength of the light.

(a) What is the essential condition for Rayleigh scattering ? (b) In Rayleigh scattering, how is intensity of scattered light related to wavelength of light ?

Assertion(A): The kinetic of the photo electron ejected increases with increases in intensity of incident light. Reason(R): Increase in intensity of incident light increases the rate of emission.

Scattering OF Light

Statement : Monochromatic X-rays fall on lighter elements such as carbon and show scattering and effect is known as Compoton effect . Explanation : lambda scattered light is always lower than lmbda incident light .

Assertion (A): Scattering of light is the reflection of light from an object in all directions. Reason (R): The colour of scattered light depends on the size of scattering particles and wavelength of light.

If a is the size of scatterer and lamda is the wavelength of light then Rayleigh law of scattering is valid for
