How would you measure the brightness of light being produced by a source?
photometer or light meter
What does 6300 light years equal to in earth years?
A light year is a measure of distance not time. A light year is the distance light travels in one year. So for light to travel 6,300 light years, would take 6,300 years
What is the color reflected when you look at grass?
Seeing as grass is green, PETANDPEZ would have to say that the colour reflected is green. However, when you see BROWN grass, green light is still being reflected only at a much lower intensity.
Why do scientists use light minutes and light hours instead of light years to measure distances with your solar systeam?
Objects in the solar system are much smaller than a light year. Light takes only minutes or hours to pass from one planet to another. To measure interplanetary distances in light years would be like measuring the sizes of insects in miles. Usually, though, rather than light hours and light minutes, distances in the solar system are measured in Astronomical Units (AU), which is average distance between Earth and the sun, about eight light minutes.
How many light years away from earth is mercury?
Mercury Is 0.000131 lightyears away from earth
What is the instrument for measuring light?
A photometer would measure the intensity of light, and a spectrometer would determine which frequencies are present.
What equipment would you need to test hypothesis the distribution of invertebrates in a habitat depends on light intensity?
Petri dish Black marker Lamp Invertabrate
Which color has the greater intensity?
A rough definition of intensity (how intense) a light is might be how bright (the brightness) the light is. Intensity speaks to the luminance or luminosity of the light source. Under that definition, either red or blue light could be more intense. But if the information regarding the energy of light according to its color (or its wavelength or frequency), we would find that a photon of blue light has more energy than a photon of red light. Blue light has a shorter wavelength or higher frequency, and electromagnetic energy with higher frequency or shorter wavelength has more energy than light of the same intensity but of lower frequency or longer wavelength.
A green plant receives more sunlight than usual. Which part of the plant cell would be most directly affected by this change?
chloroplast
What is Formula for converting watts to foot candles?
Foot-candle is a unit of light intensity, not of power like watts. The power would vary, depending on the color of the light.Foot-candle is a unit of light intensity, not of power like watts.

What is the light intensity in a pond?
The amount of light in a temperate forest is fairly minimal in the densest parts of the forest. Often not much grows under the trees due to the lack of light, except in glades and meadows where the sun is able to reach the ground.
Does purple or blue have a higher intensity?
it just depends on the shade of blue and purple. if it is a dark purple and a light blue, then the light blue would have a higher intensity. if you look at any shade, the one that is brighter has the higher intensity of the two.
Why would it be hard to find the light intensity if the temperature were very hot or cold?
because if the light changed them so would the temperature
What is the unit for measurement of light?
You cannot 'measure' light. However, there is the light-year, a measurement of the distance light can travel in one year. there are many. Lumens, cadlepower, foot candles and candelas. There are probably a few more.
Why would it be hard to find ideal light intensity if the temperature were very hot or cold?
because if the light changed them so would the temperature
How would you measure the speed of light?
Light years
What is the nit to measure the energy or intensity of sound?
Energy: joulesPerhaps you mean power: that would be joules/second = watts Intensity is measured in watts per square meter.
