Light, as we recall from Einstein's Theory of Relativity, always travels in a vacuum at a constant speed known as c (approximately 300,000 kilometers per second) BUT light also travels at slower speeds when it is not in a vacuum (which is perfectly logical because light interacts with the media through which it passes). And light of different wavelengths will be slowed to different degrees, and consequently, it is also refracted (bent) to different degrees when passing through a prism. Hence, the wavelengths, which determine the colors, separate.
What else can I help you with?
Analyzes an object's spectrum?
A spectrometer analyses an object's spectrum.
Is light part of the radio spectrum?
No, light is not part of the radio spectrum. But, both the radio spectrum and light are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is a range of frequencies from very low to very high. Light frequencies are higher than radio frequencies but both are the same kind of thing.
The full range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation is called?
That would be a spectrum or band.
Can humans hear radio waves?
As defined by research on the topic of the Electromagnetic Spectrum, no human can hear radio waves. No human can hear any part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum except gamma rays, which have enough energy to light up. If humans were to hear radio waves, they wouldn't need radios (except from the original form).
Is radio waves a form of radiation?
Yes, radio waves are electromagnetic waves.They are in the part of the spectrum with the longer wavelengths, longer than microwaves, and visible light waves.
What is the plural form of the spectrum?
The plural of spectrum is "spectra."
Can you form sentence with word spectrum?
The visible light spectrum ranges from red to violet.
What spectrum does white light form?
when dispersed through a prism: Visible spectrum of light (rainbow) part of (very small fraction) electromagnets spectrum
Visible light can be separated into the various of the visible spectrum to form to form a?
thermogram.
How is light classified in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Light is classified in the electromagnetic spectrum as a form of electromagnetic radiation that falls within the visible spectrum, which is the range of wavelengths that can be detected by the human eye.
What is full form of DSSS?
Direct-Sequencing Spread Spectrum
White light can be separated into the visible spectrum to form a?
"rainbow"
How can a prism form a visible spectrum?
A prism can form a visible spectrum by refracting light as it passes through the prism. The different colors of light have different wavelengths, causing them to bend at different angles when passing through the prism. This separation of colors creates the visible spectrum.
Which form of government on the political spectrum is the most authoritarian?
absolute monarchy
Is an x-ray a form of light found in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Yes.
Is the spectrum a public forum?
The Spectrum is NOT a form of public Forum.Keep in mind that a spectrum is a school newspaperwhich is school sponsered.A public Forum is basically like the daily news ( OUT to the open ).
Which form of government on the political power spectrum is the most egalitarian?
Representative democracy
