Yes, but x-rays can't be focused by lenses, they just pass through the lens. They can only be focused by glancing angle nested cylinder mirrors. X-rays pass through most things.

Optical telescopes are designed to collect and create images from is it white or visible light or x rays or infrared radiation or gamma rays?

An "optical" telescope would naturally collect light from optical wavelengths, meaning visible light from ~400-800nm.


Where to get uv light bulbs?

UV lamp, also called Black-light Lamp, device for producing electromagnetic radiations in the wavelengths between those of visible light and X-rays. The Sun's rays are rich in such radiation, sometimes referred to as black light because it is not visible to the unaided eye.


Can you get a sunburn from light bulbs?

Yeah light bulbs actually have sun rays.


State the difference between optical and non-optical telescopes?

Optical measures visible light, Radio measures electromagnetic radiation in that part of the spectrum corresponding to radio waves. Same with X-ray telescopes and x-rays. Optical is the kind you look through.


Which rays of the sun can in high quantities damage the skin?

UV RAYS!!! The sun is the major natural source of UV Rays. UV Rays are invisable. They are still a form of light rays. UV stands for Ultra Violiet Rays. These (UV) rays cause sunburn and damage the eyes. Overexposure of UV Rays can cause serious skin cancer. UV Rays, however, can have useful effects, too. They can destroy harmful organisms.

Which type of rays are visible?

Visible light rays are the only type of rays that are visible to the human eye. Other types of electromagnetic waves like infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays are not visible.


Are X-rays visible light?

No, x-rays are not visible light.


Is visible light longer or shorter then rays?

Visible light is made of rays. There are rays with wavelengths that are shorter than visible light and other with longer wavelength.


What is the danger of visible light rays and what can they damage?

Visible light rays can be dangerous because they can damage the eyes and skin. Prolonged exposure to visible light can lead to conditions like cataracts and skin aging. It is important to protect yourself from excessive exposure to visible light, especially from sources like the sun and artificial lighting.


What color are UV rays?

Colour only applies to visible light. UV rays are not visible.


What is it called when wavelengths are shorter than visible light but longer than X-rays?

Between visible light and X-rays there is ultraviolet light.


What has wavelength that are shorter than visible light?

We know that ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light.


Why gamma rays are called electromagnetic rays?

Gamma rays are called electromagnetic rays because they are a form of electromagnetic radiation, just like X-rays, ultraviolet light, visible light, and radio waves. They are waves of energy that travel through space at the speed of light, characterized by their high frequency and short wavelength.


Does visible light have a higher frequency than gamma rays?

No, visible light has a lower frequency than gamma rays. Gamma rays are the highest frequency of electromagnetic energy. They are above X-rays.


Visible light and ultraviolet rays are forms of?

Visible light and ultraviolet rays are forms of electromagnetic radiation (EM). So are infrared, microwave and others.


Where is the uv rays located on the spectrum?

UV rays are located between visible light and X-rays on the electromagnetic spectrum. They have shorter wavelengths and higher energy than visible light, making them invisible to human eyes but useful in applications like tanning beds and sterilization.


What is visible light part of?

Visible light is part of what is called the electromagnetic spectrum. Light is electromagnetic energy, and so are radio waves, microwaves, X-rays and gamma rays.
