How does wave length affect colour?
Wavelength is directly related to the color of light. Different colors are associated with different wavelengths of light. For example, red light has longer wavelengths compared to blue light. When light enters our eyes, the color we perceive is based on the wavelength of the light.
In a light wave what properties tell you the color of the light?
Just ONE property, the wavelength of the light. The colour of visible light depends on its wavelength. These wavelengths range from 700 nm at the red end of the spectrum to 400 nm at the violet end.
What wave color of light has the highest frequency?
violet
What does an object do to light so you can see it?
Reflects all light beams which have the wave length of the color of that object. Each color has a particular wave length in the electromagnetic spectrum.
How big is a light-wave?
There is no set size for a light-wave. Ultraviolet waves are the smallest and get larger as the color warms up.
Why can you see color when you cannot see a light wave?
Light waves are an electromagnetic radiation ranging in and wavelength. Only the wavelengths in between about 4,000 (violet) to about 7,700 (red) angstroms can be perceived by the human eye and is called visible light. The wave itself is too fast and too small to be viewed in an isolated manner. However, all light perceived by the Human eye is a light wave.
What does the frequency of a wave measure?
The frequency of a wave measures the number of complete cycles of the wave that occur in one second. It is typically expressed in hertz (Hz) and is directly related to the pitch of sound waves or the color of light waves.
Is the height of waves trough depends on its amplitude?
No, the height of a wave's trough is not directly dependent on its amplitude. The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of particles from their rest position, while the height of the wave's trough is determined by the distance from the crest to the trough. These two aspects of a wave are related but not directly proportional.
What is described by the frequency of wave?
The number of waves that pass a point in 1 second
The wavelength of a light wave can be used to measure?
The wavelength of a light wave can be used to measure the frequency of the wave, as well as its energy. Additionally, it is used to determine the color of the light based on the visible spectrum.
What properties of a light wave determine its color?
Frequency or wave length.The relation between frequency f and wave length lof a light waveis given by; f = c/l, where c is light's speed.
What are two things that determine the color of a light wave?
The wavelength of the light wave determines its color, with longer wavelengths appearing red and shorter wavelengths appearing violet. Additionally, the frequency of the light wave also plays a role, where higher frequencies correspond to bluer hues and lower frequencies to redder hues.
