What do the visible colars of light represent?
The frequency range of visible light.
Are X-rays visible light?
No, x-rays are not visible light.
Can light travel through matter?
Yes! Light travels through any material that does not completely absorb it. Visible light can only travel through materials that are called either transparent or translucent. Visible light travels through glass all the time. Visible light also travels through your cornea and the gel-like material that is in your eyeball. There are other types of light than visible light, such as ultraviolet (UV). UV is light that has more energy than visible light. This is the type of light that can give you a sunburn. There are even more energetic types of light like X-rays. They go through lots of material that visible light can't -- like skin and organs, but they do not go through bones or teeth very well.
Does a prism separate light into only the visible spectrum or the entire spectrum?
Well, seeing as it seperates visible light, it follows that it only seperates that visible light into the visible spectrum. You can't make radiowaves or UV rays out of visible light.
What is the definition of visible light waves?
EM rays which are in the range of visible light.
Are electrons moving through space called light?
Electrons are very small, and have very small mass, but they are not visible light (photons).
Which type of rays are visible?
visible light is the only VISIBLE light.
Is a great part of the mass of the galaxy not visible?
Of course - most mass is not visible.
What kind of light is normal light that you use?
The answer is visible light. Visible light is light that can be seen with a naked eye
What is difference between visible and infrared light?
Visible light is visible (for the human eye), infrared is not. Infrared has a longer wavelength, and a higher frequency. visible light is visible to human i.e the VIBGYOR, above vibgyor are ultravoilet light which is not visible to human eye and below vibgyor are infrared light which is also not visible to human eye.
Is visible light electromagnetic?
Yes. visible light is in the electromagnetic spectrum.
What are Visible light waves?
exactly what you said its called visible light.
What do the visible colars of light represent?
The frequency range of visible light.
Are X-rays visible light?
No, x-rays are not visible light.
Why is Mars visible?
Mars has mass, and mass reflects radiant energy such as sunlight. Against the dark background of space, Mars reflects enough light to be clearly visible even across the solar system, at a distance of over 200 million miles. Of course, the Sun's light is quite intense, so that even a LITTLE bit of reflection makes it quite visible. Objects far smaller than Mars, and far more distant, are still visible.
