What else can I help you with?
Is the wavelength of infrared light too long or short for humans to see?
The wavelength of infrared light is too long for humans to see.
How long does the Sun Energy's take to get to Earth?
if it was infrared light, which is basically heat, it would take about 10 mins. normal light would take about 8 mins at most.
Is the wave length of infrared light too short to be seen or too long?
The wavelength of infra-red light is LONGER than the wavelength of red light, and longer than anything to which the eye responds.
Why are infrared waves used in fiber optics?
Infrared waves are used in fiber optics because they have a longer wavelength, allowing them to travel further distances without losing signal strength. Additionally, infrared waves are less susceptible to interference from external light sources, making them ideal for transmitting data over long distances in fiber optic cables.
Which light travels faster in an optical fiber - ultraviolet or infrared?
Neither. All electromagnetic radiation (light) travels at a constant speed through whatever medium it encounters. Light in a vacuum, for instance, is about 186,282 miles per second; whereas in a fiber optic cable it chugs along at only 115,000 miles per second.*What distinguishes ultraviolet from infrared is the amount of energy associated with it, reflected in its frequency. Assuming that a particular cable is transparent to both forms of radiation (which may or may not actually be the case, as another name for infrared radiation is heat) it is likely that the ultraviolet energy would travel farther before its signal would need to be reboosted.*The speed of light through a medium is proportional to its index of refraction. The index of refraction of fiber optic cable is about 1.62; this means that light travels through it only about 60% as fast as it does through outer space.
How long would it take for light to travel 14 billion light years?
14 Billion years
How long would it take to travel by light speed to get to the sun?
8 minutes
How long would it take to get to the sun if you could travel at the speed of light?
Sunlight takes 8.4 minutes to travel 93 million miles to Earth. It would take us that long to reach the Sun at light speed.
How long would it take to travel 39 light years?
Traveling 39 light years would take 39 years at the speed of light.
How long would it take to travel 40 light years?
Traveling 40 light years would take 40 years at the speed of light.
The wavelength of infra-red light is too what for it to be seen?
The wavelength is too long to be seen by our eyes.
What would a Long wavelength visible light?
Long wavelength visible light would appear more towards the red end of the spectrum, closer to infrared light. This type of light is characterized by lower energy and longer wavelengths, making it less energetic but still visible to the human eye.
