) Danger Signals are Red. The wavelength of red colour is longer among the other colours of
visible spectrum ofsunlight. According to Rayleigh scattering law (Scattering ),red colour
is least scattered while passing through the atmosphere and therefore, travels large distance,
ie. red colour can be seen through a large distance. Hence, the danger signals make use of red
light.
