Atticus shows this in the smallest of ways, such as with the family's ornery old neighbor, Mrs. Dubose, who makes a habit of taunting Jem and Scout when they walk by her house. Just hold your head high and be a gentleman, Atticus advises Jem.
As light continues to move though the atmosphere, yellow wavelengths are scattered leaving orange wavelengths. Further scattering of orange wavelengths leaves red as the predominate color of sunlight. Therefore, near sunrise and sunset, a cloud's color is what sunlight color it receives after Rayleigh scattering.
7.2 The spectrum of the sun Visible light and infrared radiation constitute the major fraction of solar radiation reaching the atmosphere of the Earth (Fig. 7-1). Approximately 40 % of the radiation energy is visible light of wavelengths between 400 and 700 nm.. Visible Light and UV Radiation 75 Effects of the ozone layer Ozone, O 3, is produced when oxygen, O 2, in the upper atmosphere absorbs UVC (Î»). This absorption completely eliminates UVC from the solar radiation and dissociates oxygen molecules to oxygen atoms.
