What would a Long wavelength visible light?

Long wavelength visible light would appear more towards the red end of the spectrum, closer to infrared light. This type of light is characterized by lower energy and longer wavelengths, making it less energetic but still visible to the human eye.


What color carries the least amount of energy?

red light has the least energy of any visible (to humans) color, and violet has the most energy. The amount of energy carried by light is directly proportional to its frequency; the higher the frequency, the more energetic the light is.


What is the longest wavelength and least energy in the visible spectrum?

The longest wavelength in the visible light spectrum is at the red end (at about 750nm) the lowest is violet (450nm). For a given intensity source the energy that can be generated is equal.The answer you are looking for is 720-680nm


What are the 7 kinds of light in the visible spectrum?

The seven main colors of the visible light spectrum are violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, red, and orange. The first letter of each is sometimes used to make up the acronym VIBGYOR.


When visible light passes through a prism why does red light bend the least?

When visible light passes through a prism, it bends due to refraction, which occurs because light travels at different speeds in different mediums. Red light has a longer wavelength compared to other colors in the visible spectrum, such as blue or violet. As a result, it is refracted less than shorter wavelengths when passing through the prism, causing it to bend the least. This phenomenon is a key reason for the dispersion of light into a spectrum of colors.

Do all kinds of light microscopes use visible light to illuminate objects?

yes they do


What are the two kinds of light energy?

The two kinds of light energy are visible light and invisible light. Visible light is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye, while invisible light includes ultraviolet, infrared, and other forms of light that are not visible to the naked eye.


What kinds of lights can humans see?

Only in the 'visible light' spectrum.


Are there different kinds of light?

Yes, there are different kinds of light including visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light. Each type of light has its own unique properties and wavelengths.

Is all light visible?

Light is electromagnetic radiation, some visible and some not. The obvious visible spectrum is the one displayed in rainbows, which encompass the kind of light that we can see. One obvious invisible light is infrared radiation, which is basically heat. The visible spectrum ranges from 380 nm to 750 nm, in wavelength. Below the visible spectrum (less energetic) would be infrared, microwave, FM, AM, and so on. On the other side (more energetic) would be UV, X-ray, gamma-rays, etc.


Why red colour has max wavelength?

Red light has the longest wavelength among the visible light spectrum because it carries the least amount of energy. This longer wavelength makes red light less energetic than other colors like blue or purple, which have shorter wavelengths.


Which type of light has the most energy?

Ultraviolet light has the most energy among visible light, followed by visible light, then infrared light. This is because the energy of a photon is inversely proportional to its wavelength, with shorter wavelengths having higher energy. Ultraviolet light has shorter wavelengths than visible light, making it more energetic.


What kinds of people use visible light in their work?

Everyone with eyesight and a job does.
