If light from one star is 40 times more intense than light from another star what is their difference in magnitudes?
I cannot answer that question without knowing their distances from us.
How Herschel discovered infrared radiation?
while Herschel is performing the experiment on prism he send a white light through a prism this white light is split in to seven colors violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, red. he observed that heat is increasing from violet to red. red color light has more heat than others. when he measured the beyond the red portion of light he observed more heat than the red light thus he named this invisible portion of light as infrared .where infra means after
What is the lightest color on the color wheel?
The different hues are the result of different wavelength of light. The height of the waves define the brightness. Red is not brighter than violet, for example, unless the red light is stronger, peaking higher than the violet's peaks.
Does the moon gets more light from the sun than the earth does?
Since the moon does not have an atmosphere, the sunlight that reaches the surface of the moon is more intense than the sunlight that reaches the surface of the Earth after passing through the Earth's atmosphere.
When white light is passed through prism why is it observed that violet light bends more than red light?
The speed of violet light is slower than the red light in the prism.
What travels more slowly in glass red light or violet?
violet because it has a higher frequency than red light
What type of light is scattered the most in your atmosphere?
Here on earth it is violet wavelengths that scatter the most, however the earth's sun emits more blue light than violet so blue wavelengths are scattered more frequently than violet wavelengths.
When red light is compared with violet light what happens?
Violet light has a higher frequency than red light by roughly a factor of 2.
Which light can humans see?
Humans can see light all the way from red to violet, but not morethan red (infrared) nor more than violet (ultraviolet).
Is ultraviolet radiation a higher or lower energy radiation than visible light?
Ultraviolet radiation is of higher energy than visible light. Ultra-violet suggests that it is above violet in the spectrum, and the colour violet is the uppermost region of visible light.
What color in the color spectrum penetrates the deepest?
Violet because in the color spectrum it goes from weakest to strongest, starting from red all the way to violet, so violet penetrates the deepest. No it is red light. violet light in absorbed and/or reflected more than red light
Does UV radiation have more energy than violet light?
Violet light: 380-450 nm Red light: 620-750 nm nm=nanometer=10-9 meter

Why is frequency of red greater than violet?
The wavelength of violet light is shorter.
Is red light higher in frequency than violet light?
no
Does green light have a higher frequency than violet light?
no
