What light can be detected by the eye?

The human eye can detect visible light, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum that ranges from violet (shorter wavelengths) to red (longer wavelengths). It cannot see light from other parts of the spectrum, such as ultraviolet or infrared light.


Is the telescope based on wavelength and frequency?

Telescopes can be designed to detect various wavelengths and frequencies of light, not just visible light. Different types of telescopes, such as radio telescopes and X-ray telescopes, are specialized to observe different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum beyond visible light. By focusing on specific wavelengths and frequencies, telescopes can provide valuable information about celestial objects and phenomena.


Which best explains the relationship the electromagnetic spectrum and sight?

Visible light and infrared light are the parts of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be seen with the eye.


What are the parts and functions of a refracting telescope?

The most important part of a telescope is the telescope tube. Other parts are the viewfinder or optical finderscope, eyepiece, focuser, reflecting mirrors, refracting lenses, and the mount assembly.


What does a radio telescope and a reflecting telescope have in common?

Reflective and Radio telescopes gather radiation at different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum that they operate, visible light for the optical telescope and Radio frequencies for the Radio telescope. But in both cases, it's electromagnetic radiation. Radio telescopes have to capture the incoming energy that's needed to be above a certain noise and gets processed in electronic circuitry. The result is plotted out as picture of which each point indicates the location at which the beam of the antenna is pointed. It has a huge dish to reflect the incoming energy like that in a reflector telescope. The same terminology can be used in reflecting telescope, but the processing is done in a CCD camera positioned at the focus of the telescope.

Type of telescope?

Different telescopes utilize different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Two types of optical telescope are refracting and reflecting. There are also different kinds of radio telescope investigating different bandwidths from the infra red to the untra violet


Why can you see some of the spectrum and not all of it?

Humans can see a limited portion of the electromagnetic spectrum called visible light, which ranges from red to violet. Our eyes have evolved to detect these wavelengths, as they are most relevant for our survival. Other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as infrared and ultraviolet, are invisible to us because our eyes lack the receptors to detect them.

Is the only part of electromagnetic spectrum that the human eye detect?

No, the human eye can detect only a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, known as visible light. This spectrum ranges from wavelengths of approximately 400-700 nanometers, with colors like red, green, and blue falling within this range. Other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as ultraviolet and infrared light, are invisible to the human eye.

Is the visible spectrum dangerous?

No, it is not dangerous. It is just the colors that are absorbed by the light. Some parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are dangerous, however. To learn more in depth and to get more of an explanation on the visible spectrum and the electromagnetic spectrum, visit wikipedia.
