Light travels through a thin glass fiber?
fiber optics
How fiber optics systems transmit light?
bc it does
Why do signals in the fiber optics cables travel at the speed of light?
fiber optics transfer data at the speed of light because that's exactly what is transmitted through them... light. fiber optic cables are thin pieces of glass that transmit light pulses
What is an example of optics?
Some examples are Light bulb, fiber optics, laser surgury intruments.
What type of waves in fiber optics?
Light, typically IR.
What is the significance of the critical angle in the context of fiber optics?
The critical angle in fiber optics is important because it determines whether light can be transmitted through the fiber or not. When light hits the boundary of the fiber at an angle greater than the critical angle, it is reflected back into the fiber, allowing for efficient transmission of signals.
What is the physics behind the fiber optics in endoscopy how does it function?
In fiber optics something called total internal reflection occurs... this is where light enters the the glass tube and bounces along the inside. For this to happen there needs to be a coating of a material surrounding the glass fiber which is less dense than the fiber itself. The light has to hit the surface on the inside at a large enough angle for total internal reflection to occur, otherwise the light will leave the fiber. Because of this, the fibers can't bend beyond a certain point. In endoscopy fiber optics are used to direct light from a source into the area of the patients body that's being examined and also as a means of transmitting the image back up to the observer.
What are fiber-optics?
Fiber optics are cables that are used to transmit data at the speed of light. This uis especially popular with Verizon FiOS services. for details on fios go to www.whyisfiosbetter.viviti.com

When did Charles Kao invent the fiber optics?
he invented fiber optics in 1955
Can you transmit electricity through light?
Yes, electricity can be transmitted through light using technologies like fiber optics. In fiber optics, light signals are used to carry data over long distances by transmitting light through a thin fiber optic cable. This allows for fast, efficient, and secure data transmission.
What is the speed of light travel through fiber optics?
200,000,000 metres per second
