What do colors look like viewed indoors under fluorescent light and outdoors in sunlight?

Colors may appear brighter and cooler under fluorescent light indoors, as fluorescent light emits a bluish light which can affect color perception. Outdoors in sunlight, colors appear more natural and vibrant, as sunlight provides a full spectrum of light that accurately represents colors.


Why diamond glows in dark?

Some diamonds are fluorescent. This means that light enters the stone and the wave length is converted to a longer light wave. Not all diamonds are fluorescent. No diamond will 'glow in the dark' without first being exposed to a light source.


Which microscope is used to observe a specimen that emits light when illuminated with an ultra-violet light?

A fluorescence microscope is used to observe a specimen that emits light when illuminated with ultraviolet light. This type of microscope is equipped with filters that allow it to capture the emitted light while blocking out the excitation light, resulting in fluorescent images of the specimen.


What are the three sources of white light?

The three sources of white light are the sun, incandescent light bulbs, and fluorescent light bulbs.


What is one example of artificial light other than a lightbulb?

One example of artificial light other than a lightbulb is a fluorescent tube. Fluorescent tubes produce light by passing an electric current through mercury vapor, which emits ultraviolet light that then excites a phosphor coating inside the tube, creating visible light.

What is the purpose of a fluorescent light starter and how does it contribute to the functioning of a fluorescent light fixture?

A fluorescent light starter is a small device that helps initiate the flow of electricity in a fluorescent light fixture. It contains a small gas discharge tube that helps create the initial spark needed to ionize the gas inside the fluorescent tube. This ionization process allows the electric current to flow through the tube, causing the fluorescent coating to emit light. In summary, the purpose of a fluorescent light starter is to kickstart the flow of electricity in a fluorescent light fixture, enabling it to produce light efficiently.

What is the purpose of a fluorescent light ballast and how does it function in the operation of fluorescent lighting systems?

The purpose of a fluorescent light ballast is to regulate the electrical current flowing through the fluorescent light tubes. It provides the initial surge of electricity needed to start the light and then regulates the current to keep the light glowing steadily. The ballast also helps prevent flickering and ensures the longevity of the fluorescent tubes.


How do compact fluorescent lights differ from fluorescent light globes?

Compact fluorescent lights are smaller versions of traditional fluorescent light bulbs that are designed to fit into standard light fixtures. They are more energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan compared to incandescent bulbs. Fluorescent light globes typically refer to the larger, tube-shaped fluorescent bulbs that are commonly used in commercial and industrial settings.


What makes a fluorescent light glow?

A fluorescent light uses electricity to create ultraviolet light in a tube filled with mercury vapor and a phosphor coating. The ultraviolet light interacts with the phosphor coating, causing it to emit visible light, which is what makes the fluorescent light glow.
