When energy waves (such as light, sound, and various electromagnetic waves) are caused to depart from a straight path due to imperfections in the medium, it is called scattering. Scattering is unique in that the wave energy is generally deflected in multiple directions that are difficult to predict or calculate. A great example of basic scattering is to think of the sun shining on you through a thin cover of clouds. Instead of hitting you directly, the sun's light is weakened. This is because as the sun shines through the clouds, its light is scattered and only some of it ends up striking you.
Due to Scattering of light sky appear blue.
