How is laser light different from light emitted from a flashlight?

Laser light is different in many ways. These are the biggies. a) Laser light is almost monochromatic. Because it is created by exciting a specific substance to emit photons, the light emitted by the source is almost all one specific wavelength. The light from a flashlight contains all of the colors in the spectrum, forming "white light". b) Laser light is very coherent. This means that the waves leaving the laser remain in phase for a very long time. Light from a flashlight is not coherent. As a result, a laser can project a distinct beam of light much farther than a flashlight. c) Laser light is directional. This means that the beam of light being emitted does not spread much with distance. Hence it can still appear as a point of light many meters away from the source. A flashlight beam will quickly spread the further it is viewed from the source. Because of these fundamental properties, lasers are an excellent experimental device.
