What else can I help you with?
What would an astonomer conclude if he or she observed that the spectrum of a star had shifted to the blue end?
The astronomer would conclude that the star is moving towards Earth. This blue shift indicates that the wavelengths of light from the star are getting shorter, which occurs as an object moves closer to the observer.
Photons with shorter wavelengths have larger what?
More frequency, and more energy.
What has shorter wavelengths than infrared rays?
Ultraviolet rays have shorter wavelengths than infrared rays. Ultraviolet rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light, making them invisible to the human eye, while infrared rays have longer wavelengths.
What has wavelengths that are shorter than light?
We know that ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light.
Is the wavelength of x-rays longer or shorter then the wavelengths of visible light?
"shorter"
High frequency X-rays have wavelengths compared to visible light.?
Shorter wavelengths.
Waves with shorter wavelengths than those of visible light are called?
Ultraviolet waves have shorter wavelengths than visible light.
Why is early morning sunrise orange in color?
You mean as opposed to those late afternoon sunrises? Sunrises and sunsets are shifted towards the red end of the spectrum because the atmosphere scatters shorter wavelengths more effectively. Because of the angle, light at sunrise and sunset is going through a thicker "slice" of the atmosphere, and the shorter wavelengths get scattered out, while the longer reds and oranges make it through.
Are green wavelengths longer than orange wavelengths?
No, green wavelengths are shorter than orange wavelengths. In the electromagnetic spectrum, longer wavelengths correspond to colors such as red and orange, while shorter wavelengths correspond to colors like blue and green.
Are infrared raise shorter than ultraviolet rays?
No, infrared waves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies compared to ultraviolet rays, which have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies.
Which waves have shorter wavelengths radio waves or xrays?
X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio, heat, infra-red, visible light, and ultra-violet.
How would you describe the wavelengths of incoming solar radiation compared to the wavelengths of reradiated heat?
The wavelengths of incoming solar radiation are shorter than the wavelengths of reradiated heat.
