When the wavelength of scattered light is increased, then its scattering effect

A

decreases

B

increases

C

does not change

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C, D
The intensity of scattering light depends on the ratio `alpha`. The dimension of the particles and wavelength. As `lambda` increases `alpha` decreases and scattering decreases.
