X-Rays are part of the Electromagnetic spectrum, along with radio waves, microwaves, infra-red, visible light, ultraviolet rays and gamma radiation.
What is the form of radiation as natural visible light?
Visible light is a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum contains the majority of the suns rays?
IR, visible, UV. Our sun's radiation peaks in the yellow portion of the spectrum.
What is the radiant energy that acts upon the retina?
Electromagnetic radiation in the visible part of the spectrum, red to violet
Why is it true to say that all EM radiation is light even though we can see only a small slice of the spectrum as visible light?
Visible light is a very small part of the EM spectrum and it is intellectual laziness to refer to all EM radiation as light.
Why is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum you can see called ultraviolet light?
Its not. You can't see ultraviolet. (it lies just above the visible spectrum.)
Is visible light a type of ultraviolet radiation?
No, it is a type of electromagnetic radiation, which ultraviolet is part of as well.
The part of the electromagnetic spectrum you can see is called ultraviolet light?
No, the visible part is called visible light. Ultraviolet is invisible to the human eye.
Is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum you can see called ultraviolet light?
No, the visible part is called visible light. Ultraviolet is invisible to the human eye.
What is ultrviolet?
Ultraviolet is a part of electromagnetic spectrum. It is a radiation released from the sun.
X-rays are a type of what radiation?
X-Rays are part of the Electromagnetic spectrum, along with radio waves, microwaves, infra-red, visible light, ultraviolet rays and gamma radiation.
What is the form of radiation as natural visible light?
Visible light is a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What type of wave is shorter than the shortest visible light?
Ultraviolet would be the part of the spectrum shorter than visible.
What part of the solar electromagnetic spectrum has the maximum intensity?
Visible light radiation
Order of length of the visible spectrum?
The visible light spectrum is the only part of the spectrum that we can perceive with our eyes. It is commonly considered to be the 400nm -700 nm region. It lies between ultraviolet and Infrared region of the light spectrum.
What links a suntan to the EM spectrum?
A suntan is caused by the release of the pigment Melanin in the skin. This is the body's defensive response to harmful Ultraviolet radiation that makes up part of the Sun's rays. Ultraviolet is part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum.
What are the dangers of infared waves?
Infra red radiation is part of the Eletromagnetic Spectrum, it includes all types of radiation including: Radio waves, microwaves, Infra red radiation, visible light, ultraviolet, x- rays and gamma rays.Infra red radiation risks: it can damage your cornea.
