4. (b) Pupil
5. (a) light is least scattered.
6. (c) Refraction, dispersion and internal reflection
7. (b) refraction of light by different layers of varying refractive indices
8. (c) violet and blue lights get scattered more than lights of all other colours by the atmosphere.
9. (b) is scattered the least by smoke or fog.
