Light in the visible spectrum
What else can I help you with?
What light sensitive calls in the eye detected light and dark but not color?
Rods.
What are ultraviolet colors?
"Color" is the sensation that a light produces in your eye and your brain. Ultraviolet light is not detected by your eye, so there's no such thing as its color.
What area of the eye is insensitive to light?
The area of the eye that is insensitive to light is the blind spot, where the optic nerve exits the eye. This area lacks photoreceptor cells, so light cannot be detected there.
What energy is detected with the eyes?
Visible light energy is detected by the eyes. This type of electromagnetic radiation has wavelengths between about 400 to 700 nanometers, which allows it to be detected by the photoreceptor cells in the retina of the eye.
What is detected by the eyes?
The eye detects visual light, which is a quite narrow spectrum of electromagnetic wavelengths.
What instruments are used to detect different wavelengths?
Different instruments are used to detect different wavelengths of light. For example, visible light is detected by the human eye or by cameras. Infrared light is detected by infrared sensors or thermal cameras. X-rays are detected by X-ray detectors, and radio waves are detected by radio telescopes.
What type of stimulus is detected by photoreceptors?
Light
What color would your eye see when shown a yellow light?
Your eye would perceive the light as yellow because each color corresponds to a specific wavelength of light that is detected by different color receptors in your eyes.
How can light be invisible?
Light can be invisible if its wavelength falls outside the visible spectrum that the human eye can detect. For example, ultraviolet and infrared light are invisible to the naked eye but can still interact with objects and be detected by specialized equipment.
What is a visible energy called?
Visible energy is called light. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation that can be detected by the human eye.
When can light be detected?
Light can be detected by the human eye when it falls within the visible spectrum, which ranges from approximately 400 to 700 nanometers. It can also be detected by various instruments such as cameras, sensors, and photodetectors across different wavelengths, including ultraviolet and infrared light.
What light can be detected by the eye?
The human eye can detect visible light, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum that ranges from violet (shorter wavelengths) to red (longer wavelengths). It cannot see light from other parts of the spectrum, such as ultraviolet or infrared light.
