Why cant humans detect infrared light?
They can. While human eyes can not "see" infrared light, humans can detect this light as "heat" on the surface of the skin.
Are 'infrared light' and 'night vision' the same thing?
NO Infrared light show the heat of the body
Do infrared light burn us?
yes it can, infrared light bulbs are used to product heat.
How far can infrared light reach?
Infrared light is just light of a specific wavelength it can travel as far as any other wavelength of light.
What are the hazards of infrared?
The known health effects of infrared radiation include blindness and other damage to the eyes.
What would be the hardest to see in infrared light?
Since our eyes can't see infrared light, you wouldn't be able to see ANYTHING if infrared is the only light available.
Why cant humans detect infrared light?
They can. While human eyes can not "see" infrared light, humans can detect this light as "heat" on the surface of the skin.
If your eyes never see light will it hurt your eyes?
it can hurt your eyes if you never see the light. dont try it just in case.
Which forms of light are lower in energy and frequency than the light that your eyes can see?
infrared and radio :)
Why can't you see infrared light or radiowaves with your naked eyes?
Answer Your brain can't see heat, ultraviolet light, radiowaves, X-Rays, etc. with your naked eyes, because these different kinds of light's wavelengths are either too long or too short for your naked eyes to see. So that is why you can't see infrared
What is warmth irradiation?
Infrared Radiation - Warmth From The Cold of Space. What is Infrared Radiation? The light we see with our eyes is really a very small portion of what is cold.
What types of light are the most dangerous?
Infrared light is extremely dangerous to your eyes in high concetrations it can blind you if looked at directly.
Why are the wavelenghts not visable?
Because there are no receptor cells in our eyes that are capable of receiving infrared or ultraviolet light.
How does infrared ray works?
Infrared is just a colour of light, but one that our eyes cannot see. You can think of the different colours of light as having different wavelengths. Our eyes can see light with wavelengths between blue (short wavelength) and red (long wavelength). Infrared has an even longer wavelength than red light, but our eyes can't see it. If you hold your hand up to a fire, it feels warm. This is beause very long wavelength infrared warms you up. An infrared ray is invisible to your eye, but technologists can build sensors that can detect it. When you use your TV remote control to change a channel on a TV, selecting the channel on the remote tells the device to send out infrared light of a particular frequency. The light from the remote control (invisible to us) is picked up by a sensor on a TV, and depending on the frequency of the infrared, the TV decides what channel to select.
What has a longer wavelength red light or infrared light?
infrared
How does computer hurt tennagers eyes?
The rays on the monitors screen can hurt your eyes by looking at it to long. it's just like staring into a bright light.
Does a flash light hurt your eyes if shined in it?
yes and no it depends on how bright it is
