What else can I help you with?
If colors have different wavelengths do they have different frequencies and temperatures?
Yes, light is electromagnetic waves. The longest wavelengths have the lowest frequencies and the lowest temperatures. The shortest wavelengths have the highest frequencies and the highest temperatures.
Why is the sunlight reaching the earth yellowish?
Sunlight is actually light waves of different frequencies. Some of these waves are part of the visible light spectrum (ROYGBIV), and therefore sunlight appears white, a combination of all the frequencies in the visible light spectrum. Light waves with lower frequencies appear more red or orange. Light waves with higher frequencies appear violet or blue. When sunlight shines down through the atmosphere, the particles in the air scatter the light waves of higher frequencies, therefore spreading the waves in different directions in the sky (This is why the sky appears blue). The lower frequency waves reach our eyes mostly undisturbed. Since sunlight has light frequencies dominant in yellow, that's the color we see.
What is meant by spectrum wave?
A spectrum wave refers to the range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation. It includes different types of waves such as radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays with varying frequencies and wavelengths. Each type of wave carries different amounts of energy and has different properties.
Are the frequencies of ultraviolet waves slightly higher than visible light?
Ultraviolet light extends for quite a ways up the electromagnetic spectrum after visible violet ends. Its frequencies are higher. Wavelengths from 400nm to 50nm covering 4 groups of UV.
What is the definition of visible light waves?
Visible light waves are a form of electromagnetic radiation that can be seen by the human eye. They have wavelengths in the range of approximately 400 to 700 nanometers, and the different wavelengths correspond to different colors that we perceive in the world around us.
What causes colour?
Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.
What effect does changing the frequency have on light waves?
Changing the frequency of light waves alters their color. Higher frequencies correspond to shorter wavelengths and bluer colors, while lower frequencies correspond to longer wavelengths and redder colors.
Do light wave frequencies determine what color you see?
Yes, light wave frequencies determine the color you see. Different frequencies of light waves correspond to different colors in the visible spectrum that our eyes can perceive. For example, red light has a lower frequency and longer wavelength, while blue light has a higher frequency and shorter wavelength.
Are there waves of light and sound?
Yes. Sound waves have different frequencies which cause them to be louder/softer/higher/lower.Light waves have different frequencies too. The shorter the distance between the wavelenghts the darker the color. White light (the normal light the sun gives) is all of the colors together
Do visible light waves have higher frequencies than radio waves?
Yes, visible light waves have higher frequencies than radio waves. Visible light waves fall within the range of frequencies on the electromagnetic spectrum that is higher than radio waves.
What do microwaves have in common with light waves?
Microwaves and light waves are both forms of electromagnetic radiation, but differ in their wavelengths and frequencies. Microwaves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies compared to visible light waves. Both types of waves can be reflected, refracted, and absorbed by different materials.
In what ways are infrared waves different from red light waves?
Infrared waves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies than red light waves. They are not visible to the human eye but can be felt as heat.
If colors have different wavelengths do they have different frequencies and temperatures?
Yes, light is electromagnetic waves. The longest wavelengths have the lowest frequencies and the lowest temperatures. The shortest wavelengths have the highest frequencies and the highest temperatures.
How will you relate color light with frequency?
Color light is determined by the frequency of the light waves. Different colors of light correspond to different frequencies of light waves. For example, red light has a lower frequency than blue light. The relationship between color light and frequency is that higher frequencies are associated with colors towards the violet end of the spectrum, while lower frequencies are associated with colors towards the red end.
Since the different kinds of waves have different lengths they also have different?
frequencies. Shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies, while longer wavelengths correspond to lower frequencies. This relationship is described by the formula: frequency = speed of light / wavelength.
What is the frequency for a light wave?
You can see electromagnetic waves with frequencies between roughly 4.3 x 1014 Hzand 7.5 x 1014 Hz. Those are the waves we call 'light'. Different frequencies in thisrange are perceived as different colors. Outside this range of frequencies, the wavesare still there, but your eyes don't know it.
What difference between the waves that make up bright green light and dim red light?
The frequencies and wavelenghts are different.
