Is monochromatic light is a ultra violet light?

Monochromatic light is light of one wavelength. E.g. A red laser has one single wavelength and is therefore categorised as 'monochromatic light'. A standard light bulb emits light of many different wavelengths across the visible spectrum and therefore is not 'monochromatic light'.


Is the light from an incandescent lamp monochromatic?

No, an incandescent bulb i.e. a bulb that emits light by the generation of heat, emits white light and is therefore not monochromatic. For a source to be monochromatic, the light emitted must be of a single wavelength.


What is monochromatic in physics terms?

Mono means single Chrome means colour So monochromatic means single coloured light Example: Light coming from Sodium vapour lamp ---- Monochromatic means (light) of a single frequency or, what is the same thing, of the same wavelength.


What happens to the spectrum if a red light shines on a prism?

red light is monochromatic light and if it shines on a prism its still red light pass through the prism, not 'rainbow' color.


Is LED a monochromatic light?

Almost, but it has some spreading. Laser diodes are monochromatic.


What is monochromatic light compared to white light?

Monochromatic light contains light of only one colour (or frequency), while white light contains light of different colours and frequencies.


What is the nature of monochromatic light?

Monochromatic means "single-color". In contrast, white light is a mixture of many colors. In monochromatic light, each individual piece of light has the same frequency, and the same wavelength. Each piece of light does not necessarily have the same phase; if it does, the light is said to also be coherent.


What happens when you use shiny objects to reflect light onto the screen?

Some of the light is scattered on its journey to the screen. When the light hits the screen, some of it is reflected from the surface. The rest is refracted through the material of the screen. What happens then depends on screen and what is on its other side.


Do light microscopes use monochromatic light?

No, normal white light.


What is a statement that is not true about a white light?
