What else can I help you with?
Is ultraviolet a type of light?
Yes, Ultraviolet is a blue/purple type of light that is florescent.
Why are bug zappers light blue?
According to the website below, they are blue because blue is the closest wavelength of the visible spectrum to ultraviolet light, and insects are attracted to ultraviolet light.
Does blue light attract mosquitoes?
No, blue light does not attract mosquitoes. They are more attracted to ultraviolet light and heat.
How do wavelengths of infraed light compare to wavelenghths of ultraviolet light?
Infrared light has longer wavelengths compared to ultraviolet light. Infrared light wavelengths range from about 700 nm to 1 mm, while ultraviolet light wavelengths range from about 10 nm to 400 nm.
Why do Diamonds that turn blue under ultra violet light?
Diamonds that turn blue under ultraviolet light have trace elements of boron in their crystal structure. These boron impurities absorb ultraviolet light and emit a blue fluorescence, causing the diamond to appear blue under UV light.
Do spiderwebs reflect or split ultraviolet light?
Spiderwebs can reflect ultraviolet light, making them visible to insects and birds that can see in the ultraviolet spectrum. The ultraviolet light can also cause the spider silk to fluoresce, creating a distinctive blue-green color.
What type of light are mosquitoes attracted to?
Mosquitoes are attracted to ultraviolet light, as well as blue and green light.
What part of the spectrum does a star that looks blue probably have its peak wavelength?
ultraviolet. Comment: I agree, or it could simply be blue in some cases.
What mineral could ultraviolet light be used to find?
Ultraviolet light can be used to find minerals such as scheelite, which fluoresces bright blue under UV light. This fluorescence is helpful in mineral identification and exploration.
What ems wave is necessary for photosynthesis?
Ultraviolet It need visible light. Red and blue light are more preferred.
Which of the following requires the MOST energy to generate A microwave blue light xray ultra violet light?
X-ray. The energy of a light photon is inversely proportional to its wavelength. (so as the wavelength shortens, the energy goes up.) X-rays have the shortest wavelengths of the types of light you mentioned. In order of energy highest to lowest, the lights you mentioned would be: x-ray, ultraviolet, blue, microwave.
Does ultraviolet light heat Earth's atmosphere the most or is it blue light?
Ultraviolet light does not directly heat Earth's atmosphere the most. Rather, visible light, including blue light, and infrared radiation from the Sun are primarily responsible for heating Earth's atmosphere through interactions with the surface and the gases in the atmosphere. Ultraviolet light mainly affects the ozone layer in the stratosphere, which plays a crucial role in protecting the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
