The above statement is True.
Light can be examined entirely from its source. When light passes from one medium to any other medium the medium is preceded by its subsequent radiation in a particular direction.is called scattering of light. Sunlight is scattered widely by gases and other objects in the Earth's atmosphere. Compared to other colours, blue light scatters more because it moves in shorter, smaller waves.
