Does a spherical bubble in a pane of glass act to converge or diverge light passing through it?
A spherical bubble in a pane of glass will act to diverge light passing through it. This is because the spherical shape of the bubble causes the light rays passing through it to refract outwards, leading to a diverging effect.
Explain why colors appear on the surface of a soap bubble?
The phenomenon is called iridescence. It happens because in a thin film (like a soap bubble, or gasoline on water) there can be constructive interference in light waves as they bounce between the two surfaces of the film. The exact color depends very sensitively on the thickness of the film, which is why the colors seem to swirl around as minor variations in the thickness move through the substance.
What is the appearance of the air bubble as you rack the fine adjustment up and down?
As you rack the fine adjustment up, the air bubble will appear to move in the opposite direction. Similarly, as you rack the fine adjustment down, the air bubble will appear to move in the same direction. This movement is due to the changes in the position of the objective lens that affects the focus and the path of the light passing through the microscope.
What color would a white shirt appear to be if light reflected from the shirt passed through a red filter and then through a green filter?
If light reflected from a white shirt passed through a red filter and then a green filter, the shirt would appear black. This is because red and green filters would absorb most of the colors from the white light, leaving very little to pass through. White light contains all colors of the spectrum, so when most of it is absorbed by the filters, the resulting color appears black.
What happens when a beam of light is passed through a colloidal solution?
When a strong beam of light is passed through a colloidal solution, then scattering of light is absorbed.
Why can you see the colors of a rainbow in bubbles?
Visible light contains all the colors that the eye can see. These colors are represented by different wavelengths, radio waves are very long waves and x-rays are much shorter. Visible light, for a simple explanation, is located between radio and x-rays on the electromagnetic spectrum. When light passes through the bubble, light passes to the other side of the bubble and bounces back. The light that bounces back can be interfere with the part of the bubble it initially passed through. The interfered wave gets subtracted from the total visible light wave and the remaining wave is the color you see. For example if blue light is subtracted from white light, you see yellow. The thickness of the bubble will determine the colors show, and therefore the color shown is an indication of how thick the bubble is!
What is light passed through a polarized filter?
Such light is said to be polarized.
What affects the color of light?
if the light passes through something that is coloured the light changes colour to the colour that it passed through
Is bubble wrap transparent translucent or opaque?
Bubble wrap is translucent, meaning that light can pass through it, but objects behind it cannot be seen clearly.
What is light that has passed through a polarizing filter called?
It is called 'polarized light' .
What is a warp bubble?
A warp bubble is a theoretical design of propulsion that is able to overcome the theory that nothing can travel passed the speed of light. Instead of trying to go faster, the warp bubble allows a craft to condense the space in front of them and expand the space in back of them. In essence it is like a cosmic surfer. The spacecraft would ride upon the wave of spacial distortion that it is creating by its warp bubble.
Light consisting of a mixture of all visible wavelengths would appear?
Light consisting of a mixture of all visible wavelengths would appear white to the human eye. This is because the various wavelengths combine to produce the perception of color that we interpret as white light. In practice, examples of such light include sunlight and light from incandescent bulbs. When passed through a prism, this white light can be separated into its constituent colors, creating a spectrum.
