What do humans see different wavelengths of as light?
Different wavelengths of visible light are different colors.
What wavelengths of light can humans see?
Most humans eyes are sensitive to wavelengths between about 400 nm (violet) and 700 nm (red)
What kind of energy enables us to see?
Light, for humans "visible light" which is a form of electromagnetic radiation with a relatively wide range of wavelengths. The absorption or reflection of the various wavelengths of light by objects are what define their color.
What is a very narrow range of wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can see?
Visible light.
Wavelengths of violet light compared to wavelengths of ultraviolet light?
Violet light has longer wavelengths.
What do humans see different wavelengths of as light?
Different wavelengths of visible light are different colors.
What wavelengths of light can humans see?
Most humans eyes are sensitive to wavelengths between about 400 nm (violet) and 700 nm (red)
Can humans see all the wavelengths or light that arrive on earth from the sun?
no

What is the only electromagnetic spectrum that humans perceive with their eyes?
The wavelengths which comprise visible light.
What is a very narrow range of wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can see?
Visible light.
Why can't blue light be seen at sunset?
its wavelengths are scattered due to Earth's atmosphere
Are we humans not able to see light from sun clear because of its brightness or the wavelengths?
We have NO TROUBLE at all seeing visible light wavelengths from the sun.We cannot see the radio, microwave, infrared, ultraviolet, or x-ray "light" from the sun because our eyes are not sensitive to these wavelengths.
Wavelengths of violet light compared to wavelengths of ultraviolet light?
Violet light has longer wavelengths.
What form of radiation can humans see?
Humans can see visible light, which is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 400-700 nanometers. This range of wavelengths is detected by the photoreceptor cells in our eyes and processed by the brain to produce the sensation of sight.
Can any of the three forms of radiation be seen or felt by humans?
Humans are very sensitive to physical vibrations in material media in the frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 KHz, known as 'sound'.Humans are also very sensitive to electromagnetic energy with wavelengths between roughly 350 to 800 nanometers, known as 'light'.Human skin is also sensitive to electromagnetic radiation with somewhat longer wavelengths than visible light, known as 'infrared' radiation, or 'heat'.
What colors are associated with wavelength?
Of the colors visible to humans, red light has the lowest wavelength. Violet light and white light have the highest wavelengths.
