"Visible" electromagnetic radiation is radiation with wavelengths between roughly
390 to 750 nanometers. (0.000350 to 0.000750 millimeters)
-- If electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength in this range enters your eye,
you know it, because the retina of your eye responds to these wavelengths.
-- If radiation enters your eye but its wavelength is not in this range, you don't
notice it.
-- If there is radiation in the neighborhood with wavelength in this range but it
doesn't enter your eye, then you don't notice it.
(If a flashlight shines a spot on the wall across the room, you don't see the shaft
of light on its way across the room. You see it only after the light hits the wall and
some of it bounces off the wall and into your eyes. )

What converts X-ray energy into visible light?
Scintillator materials convert X-ray energy into visible light.
What is a Ray of light in the air?
A ray of light in the air is a thin beam of light traveling through the atmosphere. The ray can be produced by natural sources like the sun or artificial sources like light bulbs. It can be seen as a visible stream of photons passing through the air.
What are the 7 forms of em energy?
The seven forms of electromagnetic energy are radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Each form of electromagnetic energy has a different wavelength and frequency, leading to their diverse applications and interactions with matter.
Is a wave with frequency of 5x10 16 Hz visible?
No, a wave with a frequency of 5x10^16 Hz falls within the range of the electromagnetic spectrum classified as the gamma-ray region. Gamma rays are not visible to the human eye.
What is the 7 parts of the Electromagnetic Spectrum?
The seven parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, in order of increasing frequency, are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Each part has different properties and uses based on their wavelength and frequency.
What converts X-ray energy into visible light?
Scintillator materials convert X-ray energy into visible light.
Is gamma ray a visible light?
No, gamma rays are not visible to the human eye.
What ray is longer ultraviolet or visible rays?
All visible wavelengths are longer than the wavelength of ultraviolet.
What happens when a light ray enter a prism?
All the colors of the visible light spectrum are made visible.
Visible light x-ray and uv have the same what?
speed
Which has the greatest frequency out of radio wave microwave infrared wave visible light ultraviolet light x-ray gamma ray?
gamma ray
What is the shortest ray of light?
Visible light with the shortest wavelengths is violet.
Does x ray travel faster than visible light in medium?
No.
Who has a lower frequency gamma ray infrared wave radio wave or visible light?
Gamma ray
What has been discovered using electromagnetic waves outside the visible spectrum?
microwave pulsarsgamma ray burstersx-ray photographyetc.
What has the longest wave length a Gamma wave microwave visible light or x-ray?
From that list, microwaves have the longest wavelength. Those four items would be arranged by wavelength like this: - Gamma ray (shortest) - X-ray - Visible light - Microwave (longest)
What is an electromagnetic radiation in the wavelength range including infrared visible ultraviolet and x ray?
Blue light is in the visible wavelength range.
