How do we detect sound?
Normally, we detect sound by listening with our ears. As sound is waves, there are instruments that can detect and show the waves on a screen.
How did he generate and detect EM waves?
The answer to that question depends heavily on who "he" was.
Which wave can your eye detect?
If you mean, "which wavelengths of light can the human eye detect," the human eye can see wavelengths from about 390 to 700 nanometers.
What is another word for light waves?
Electromagnetic waves or radiation. "Light," however, generally refers to that portion of the EM spectrum that our eyes can detect.
Describe infrasonic and ultrasonic waves and explain why humans can not hear them?
The human ear cannot detect all possible frequencies. It has evolved to detect frequencies of sounds that are the most useful to humans, and has a maximum frequency range of about 20Hz to 20kHz, which decreases as you get older, particularly at the higher end. Infrasonic describes sounds that are too low in frequency to be heard by the human ear, and ultrasonic describes sounds that are too high in frequency to be heard by the human ear. These sounds cannot be heard by the human ear because they are outside of its range of capability.
The range of electromagnetic waves that human eyes can detect?
visible light spectrum
What is visible light and what portion can humans detect?
Visible light waves are the electromagnetic waves which are detected by the human eye. They make up only a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. So, visible light is any light in which the human eye can detect.
How do we detect sound?
Normally, we detect sound by listening with our ears. As sound is waves, there are instruments that can detect and show the waves on a screen.
How you can detect waves?
to detect ultrasonic waves ,place a sensitive flame in its path. if it flickers it proves its existence.
What is the tiny section of medium energy waves from the EM spectrum that the Human eye can detect called?
It is called visible light.
Which waves does it detect to make image?
IT DETECT IT BY ULTRA VIOLET RAYS.
How the human ear and other parts of the body receive or detect sound waves?
by our sense organ which depend upon the situation and overflow the nervous system.
Devise that bounces radio waves off the ground to detect changes in elevation?
A radio altimeter bounces radio waves off the ground to detect elevation.
What can't deaf people do?
Detect sound waves.
What type of waves do pit vipers detect?
infrared
What instrument do we use to detect sound waves?
Sonar
Telescopes cannot detect?
Telescopes can not detect any radiation for which they were not specifically built. For example, a radio telescope is specifically designed to detect radio waves. Also, telescopes can not detect radiation that is too faint for them. What is too faint depends on the capabilities of the telescope.
