Visibility of the atmosphere is :

  • A.The greatest distance an observer can see
  • B.The greatest distance an observer cannot see
  • C.The shortest distance an observer can see
  • D.The shortest distance an observer cannot see

Answer: A

Visibility is the greatest distance an observer can see.

Meteorological visibility is defined as the greatest distance at which a suitable dark object can be seen and identified against the sky at the horizon by day, or a light of moderate intensity seen at night. It is reduced by fog, haze, dust and precipitation.

The other options turn the definition upside down: a shortest distance makes no sense as a limit of sight, and a distance one 'cannot see' is not what an observer reports.
