Electromagnetic energy
What form of energy travels in varying wavelengths such as visible light infrared waves radio waves ultraviolet waves and X rays?
The electromagnetic spectrum includes visible light radio waves and infrared ultraviolet and x-rays.
What are the three wavelengths that are shorter than visible light?
There are an infinite number of wavelengths above visible, below visible, and within visible. Since reality has infinite resolution, we can imagine varying the wavelength with infinite division. To call out bands of wavelength: Ultraviolet, X-rays, & Gamma rays.
What are the two forms of electromagnetic radiation that experience the least atmospheric opacity?
There is a spectrum of electromagnetic radiation varying from small wavelengths (high frequency and energy) like gamma rays and x-rays to visible light (in the mid to lower end of the spectrum) to long wavelengths like radio waves etc.
What form does sound travel?
sound travels in longitudinal waves of varying pressures. Kind of like this: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Why is OH absorption of alcohols and phenols characterised by a broad peak in infrared spectrometry?
If a significant quantity of a compound is being analysed, a very large number of individual molecules will be present. The hydrogen bonds are formed in different ways and they absorb infrared radiation at varying frequencies. This results in a broad peak.
What would engelmann's conclusion be?
Engelmann's conclusion was that different wavelengths of light have varying effects on photosynthesis in plants. He determined that red and blue light are the most effective for promoting photosynthesis, while green light is least effective. This information laid the foundation for understanding the role of different light wavelengths in plant growth and development.
Is the moon half because of a shodow?
No. The moon is a sphere that travels once around the Earth every 29.5 days. As it does so, it is illuminated from varying angles by the sun.
Why is chromatic aberration a problem for astronomers?
When light of different wavelengths is scattered sightly due to differences in how the light reacts to the optics of the system. when light of different wavelengths are scattered slightly due to differences in how the light reacts to the optics of the system
What is squat and settlement of a vessel?
When a vessel travels through the water it raises or sinks slightly relative to when it is not moving. This change in how the vessel sits in the water at varying speeds is referred to as the Settlement and Squat.
How much gas does a car use in one day?
A car can use varying amounts of gas in one day. It pretty much depends on the load the car is carrying and how far the car travels in one day.
Is ultraviolet radiation matter?
Matter is anything with volume and mass...if it takes up space and has mass and is composed of atoms and molecules it is matter. Radiation comes in many forms that are absorbed in electron transitions at varying rates. For example, in the lower ultraviolet range all the uv from the sun is absorbed in a thin outer layer of your skin. Radiation is a form of energy that reacts with matter, but not a form of matter in and of itself.
