What frequencies of visible light are transmitted through a piece of glass if the glass appears purple?
If the glass appears purple, it means it is absorbing most of the green, yellow, and red light frequencies. This leaves mainly blue and red light to be transmitted through the glass, giving it a purple appearance.
Why is the sunlight reaching the earth yellowish?
Sunlight is actually light waves of different frequencies. Some of these waves are part of the visible light spectrum (ROYGBIV), and therefore sunlight appears white, a combination of all the frequencies in the visible light spectrum. Light waves with lower frequencies appear more red or orange. Light waves with higher frequencies appear violet or blue. When sunlight shines down through the atmosphere, the particles in the air scatter the light waves of higher frequencies, therefore spreading the waves in different directions in the sky (This is why the sky appears blue). The lower frequency waves reach our eyes mostly undisturbed. Since sunlight has light frequencies dominant in yellow, that's the color we see.
How do you perceive the different frequencies of light waves?
Different frequencies of visible light are perceived as different colors.
Are the frequencies of ultraviolet waves slightly higher than visible light?
Ultraviolet light extends for quite a ways up the electromagnetic spectrum after visible violet ends. Its frequencies are higher. Wavelengths from 400nm to 50nm covering 4 groups of UV.
When light from all frequencies of the visible ange are combined the resultant light is?
When light from all frequencies of the visible spectrum is combined, the resultant light appears white. This phenomenon occurs because the combination of all colors in the visible spectrum—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet—blends together to create the perception of white light. This principle is fundamental in understanding both additive color mixing in light and the behavior of colors in various applications, such as digital screens and lighting.
What frequencies of visible light are transmitted through a piece of glass if the glass appears purple?
If the glass appears purple, it means it is absorbing most of the green, yellow, and red light frequencies. This leaves mainly blue and red light to be transmitted through the glass, giving it a purple appearance.
What frequencies of visible light are transmitted through a piece of glass if the glass appears orange?
The frequencies of visible light transmitted through orange glass are predominantly in the range of 590 to 620 nanometers. This corresponds to the orange wavelengths of light that are absorbed by the glass, while other wavelengths are blocked or absorbed to create the orange color.
What frequencies of visibile light are transmitted through a piece of glass if the glass appears black?
When a piece of glass appears black, it is likely absorbing all visible light frequencies rather than transmitting them. This could be due to impurities in the glass that absorb light or a particular treatment on the surface of the glass.
What is matter through which visible light is easily transmitted?
Glass?
Which electromagnetic radiations can be transmitted through an optical fiber?
Electromagnetic radiations in the visible spectrum, such as infrared, visible light, and near-ultraviolet, can be transmitted through an optical fiber. These wavelengths are compatible with the glass or plastic material of the fiber and capable of traveling long distances with minimal loss.
What radiation lies at frequencies just blow the frequencies of visible light?
infrared
Do visible light waves have higher frequencies than radio waves?
Yes, visible light waves have higher frequencies than radio waves. Visible light waves fall within the range of frequencies on the electromagnetic spectrum that is higher than radio waves.

How do you perceive the different frequencies of light waves?
Different frequencies of visible light are perceived as different colors.
Does there have to be visible sores to get herpes?
No. There is a brief period when the virus is transmitted before sores are visible.
What is the difference between the colours of visible light?
their wavelengths (frequencies)
How do our brains interpret the different frequencies of visible light?
Our brains interpret the different frequencies of visible light through specialized cells in the retina called cones. Cones are sensitive to different wavelengths of light, allowing us to perceive colors. The brain processes the signals from these cones to create our perception of the colors we see.
