I propto (1/λ 4) ⇒ (If/Ii)=(((λ )i/(λ )f))4 =((8/4))4=24=16

Q. On decreasing the wavelength of incident light from $8000 A^{\circ}$ to $4000 A^{\circ},$ the intensity of the scattered light in Rayleigh scattering will become _____ times the initial scattered intensity.

$I \propto \frac{1}{λ ^{4}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{I _{f}}{I _{i}} = (\frac{( λ ) _{i}}{( λ ) _{f}})^{4}$
$= (\frac{8}{4})^{4} = 2^{4} = 16$
