What type of visible light is the sun?

The sun emits all colors of visible light, including red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. The sun's surface temperature is 5,800 Kelvin, and its sunlight has a peak wavelength of about 550 nanometers. This wavelength is perceived as visible white light


How does the spectrum of white light from the sun?

The spectrum of white light from the sun includes all the colors of the rainbow, from violet to red. This is due to the sun's energy being emitted across a range of different wavelengths, with each color corresponding to a specific wavelength. When white light is dispersed, such as through a prism, its different wavelengths are separated, revealing the colors of the spectrum.


Why is called as monocromatic source of light?

Mono chromatic light is emitted by a laser source or by a red Light Emitting Diode. These sources emit a single wavelength of light around 550 nanoMetres. White light from the sun for example is a mixture of many wavelengths mixed together from red to violet to form white light.


The brightest color emitted by the sun?

The sun emits white light, which is a combination of all the colors in the visible spectrum. However, when the sunlight passes through the Earth's atmosphere, it appears yellowish due to the scattering of shorter-wavelength blue and violet light by air molecules.


Is the sun yellow because of light radiates from it?

Yes, the sun appears yellow to us on Earth because its light is scattered by the Earth's atmosphere, causing shorter-wavelength light (blue and violet) to be dispersed more than longer-wavelength light (yellow, orange, and red). In space, the sun emits light across a spectrum of colors, with the majority being in the visible range.

Why white light of sun cannot considered pure and uniform?

The white light of the sun cannot be considered pure and uniform because they have different wavelength in different times.

What is the relationship between the color white and the wavelength of white light?

The color white is not associated with a specific wavelength of light because white light is a combination of all visible wavelengths of light.


Wavelength of electrons are what percent visible in the white light?

The wavelength of electrons is about 10,000 times shorter than the wavelength of visible light. This means that electrons are not visible in white light as their wavelengths are outside the visible spectrum.


What is the wave length of the light used newtons ring?

Any wavelength of light can be used. Natural light, the white light we receive from the Sun, is a mixture of waves with wavelengths between about 350 and 700 nm.


Is white light monochromatic light?

No exactly the contrary, white light is made up of light of all the colours of the rainbow. And you need to take that literally. The rainbow has these colours because rain acts as a prism and breaks the white light of the sun apart in the colours it is made up of. Because monochromatic means 'of one and the same colour', white light is not monochromatic. LASER light is always monochromatic: all particles have exactly the same wavelength (colour)


What is the relationship between the wavelength of white light in the spectrum and its corresponding color?

The relationship between the wavelength of white light in the spectrum and its corresponding color is that different wavelengths of light correspond to different colors. White light is made up of a combination of all the colors in the visible spectrum, with each color having a specific wavelength. When white light is separated into its individual colors, each color is seen based on its specific wavelength.


What is the difference between yellow light and white light?

White light is a mixture of all the wavelengths of the visible spectrum. Visible light ranges from approximately 400 to 800 nm in wavelength. Wavelength of yellow light is565-590 nm.We perceive electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength between 565 and 590 x 10-9 m as yellow light.


Why does the sun produce light of that wavelength?

Because that's what the chemical reactions going in in the sun does.


How measure the sun temperature?

Use a spectrometer to measure the wavelength of the light. There is a direct, but inverse correlation of the wavelength to the temperature.
