What kinds of lights can humans see?
Only in the 'visible light' spectrum.
What is the visible spectrum of white lights?
The visible spectrum is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. You can remember this by remembering ROY G. BIV as a man's name.
Where is the visible spectrum located?
On a sunny day, or in an inside room with the lights on, it is all around you.
What form of electromagnetic waves falls just after visible lights on the electromagnetic spectrum?
ultraviolet
Why is the electromagnetic spectrum called a spectrum?
electromagnetic spectrum is called as the spectrum because it consists of different lights like radio waves, micro waves, infrared, visible light, ultra violet light, x-rays, gamma-rays
Which basic property determines a colored lights placement on the spectrum of visible light?
Most of the spectrum charts that I have seen are listed in wavelengths, particularly nanometers (nm). Where 1 nm = 1x10^-9 m.
How are the continuous bright line spectrum and spectral lines similar?
In a continuous spectrum, you see every color in visible light from wavelengths around 380 nm to 780 nm. The bright light spectrum has only light at specific wavelengths, forming narrow regions of lights. This is characteristic of a particular substance, emitting these lights from its unique electron configuration. Light at specific wavelengths is emitted for different substances, but not a continuous rainbow.
What is used when to separate white lights into a visible spectrum?
A glass prism is used to separate sunlight into individual colours. The same affect is seen when sunlight passes through raindrops, forming a rainbow.
Is visable light the shortest of lights in wavelength?
Any light that is visible (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet) will have a different wave length. Red being the longest and violet being the shortest. Light is on a thing called the electro-magnetic spectrum, which also includes X-rays, radio waves, micro waves and gamma rays. Visible light is in the middle of this spectrum.
Why do artificial plant-growth lights have a light spectrum that favors the blue and red portions of the spectrum?
Chlorophyll, the main photosynthetic pigment of plants, absorbs mainly blue and red wavelengths from the Sun and reflects green ones, and it is this reflected light that gives plants their leafy color. Light can be split into red, green, and blue. Plants are green because they reflect the green portion of the spectrum, but consume the blue and red portions. Perhaps photosynthesis uses blue and red portions of spectrum, making a light spectrum that favors red and blue portions of the spectrum the best for plant growth.
What are infrared lights?
== == Infrared light lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared light has a range of wavelengths, just like visible light has wavelengths that range from red light to violet. "Near infrared" light is closest in wavelength to visible light and "far infrared" is closer to the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The longer, far infrared wavelengths are about the size of a pin head and the shorter, near infrared ones are the size of cells, or are microscopic.
Are the Northern Lights visible in Russia?
yes
