Is the light from an incandescent lamp monochromatic?

No, an incandescent bulb i.e. a bulb that emits light by the generation of heat, emits white light and is therefore not monochromatic. For a source to be monochromatic, the light emitted must be of a single wavelength.


Is hydrogen light a monochromatic source?

NO. It produces four lines with wide difference in wavelengths. So it is not a monochromatic just as sodium vapour lamp


Is sodium lamp a monochromatic lamp?

LPS is a monochromatic lamp and HPS is not.


Is sodium lamp a monochromatic source?

sodium light is not monochromatic but we consider it because sodium light is made up of two wavelengths i.e dichromatic having little difference in their values (5890 and 5896 A) n we take their mean value (5893 A)...........


What is monochromatic in physics terms?

Mono means single Chrome means colour So monochromatic means single coloured light Example: Light coming from Sodium vapour lamp ---- Monochromatic means (light) of a single frequency or, what is the same thing, of the same wavelength.


What will be the resulting spectrum if use a monochromatic light instead of sodium vapour lamp in diffraction grating?

You will observe a series of bright and dark fringes uniformly spaced, of the color of the monochromatic light used.


Why you use mercury lamp instead of ordinary light or sodium lamp in constant deviation?

we use mercury lamp instead of ordinary lamp because ordinary lamp has many wavelengths when mercury lamp has single wavelength so in constant deviation we use only mercury lamp.


Is sodium lamp monochromatic?

No, sodium lamps are not monochromatic. They emit a broad spectrum of light, with a characteristic yellow-orange color due to the dominant emission of spectral lines in the yellow region.


Difference between monochromatic and polarized light?

Monochromatic means that it has only frequency. Polarized is definition for light which has its electric and magnetic vectors oscillating in a certain way (linearly polarized, elliptically and so on) but it might have many frequencies included. In the same time monochromatic light can be polarized.


What is the light source of a microscope also known as?

The "lamp"-no seriously, it is a lamp.


Can newton's rings exp done by mercury vapour lamp?

Mercury vapour gives out several colours of different wavelength the rings formed with different colours would get overlapped and so chaotic image will be there. Therefore, it will require that you use light filters, yellow, green and blue for the different spectral lines, then you get monochromatic light and not a chaotic image at all.


How do tv's and computers monitors get light?

They use a mercury lamp.
