what color light shines the brightest through fog?

I'm not too sure, but I would assume that it's green (532 nm), which is the most visible color for most humans.

largely, for the same reason the sky is blue.  the amount that light is scattered is proportional to its frequency to the fourth power.  thus, blue light is scattered most strongly, and the sky appears blue.  at sunset (and sunrise), we're looking directly at the sun, and all the blue light has been scattered away.  other colors (yellow and green, mainly) are absorbed by the water vapor in the air.  the orange and red, being the smallest visible frequencies, are what come through the strongest.

The white is the color that is reflected to our eyes when it reflects off a pack of snow.  As snow accumulates there are millions of surfaces that this light can reflect from.  You can not see through the snow even though it is frozen water because of this.  \n\nIf you look through a microscope at one snow flake it is pretty transparent but not completely.  That is because the amount of reflective surfaces are only a few and going in only a few directions.

luminous flame can be seen, gives off light,nonluminous you can not see, usally from a very high heat source

Light is emitted by objects that are very hot.\nLight is emitted by objects that are at very high temperatures.

When sunlight travels through the atmosphere, blue light scatters more than the other colors, leaving a dominant yellow-orange hue to the transmitted light. The scattered light makes the sky blue; the transmitted light makes the sunset reddish orange. \nI could go into explaining it, but I'm too tired at the moment. Check out here:

I think they've misunderstood.its not speed you are asking about? Depends on the density of the air. light wont travel as far in foggy or smokey conditions as it will under clear conditions.water and air are basically the same thing, different density. That's why it is dark at the bottom of the ocean. It is too dense to penetrate Under clear conditions the distance light will travel if indefinite as far as we know as long as there is nothing interfering or blocking the source

You're obviously not looking hard enough!  After it's been raining (not this week) and the sun is coming out again, look at a cloud, a dark one is better than a light one, and you should be able to see how the edge of the cloud appears to be lined with silver

the visible light spectrum is from about 400 nm to 700 nm. it is continuous, so you can't really count the spectrum(s). it starts from blue (400) moves to green, yellow, orange, red, far red.

I suppose the answer is ultaviolet but as it is outside the visual spectrum of elctromagnetic radiation I can't see how you could define it as a coloUr.

This site might help "see" what is going on and why.  Interesting question by the way.  I saw my first one last summer and the colors were so bright.  It was amazing!  Had everyone out in the parking lot of the strip mall checking it out.\n\n\nhttp://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/Hbase/atmos/rbowpri.html\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow

For the same reason the sky looks blue. If the air were perfectly transparent and without dust or water vapor etc, you would see the distant greeny hill look green(y).\n\nBut due to the presence of microscopic dust in the air, the distant objects take on a very slightly bluish hue.
