Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Sun seems to be red at the time of sunrise due to the excessive scattering of light of short wavelength due to the atmospheric particles. Light is composed of seven colours. Out of these, red light has the maximum wavelength and shortest frequency. The scattering of light highly depends on the wavelength of light. At the time of sunrise, the light passes through more of the atmosphere due to which most of the short wavelength light is scattered and the sun appears reddish.
