Where can you find zirconium?

There is a mine producing zirconium at Phalaborwa (pronounced Palabora) in northern South Africa. Other things are mined there mainly, but zirconium and zirconium oxide were found as by=products of mining operations.


What human organ is sensitive to a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum?

VIsual light


Does the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum represent a large portion of the spectrum?

No, the optical spectrum does not represent a large portion of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum. Electromagnetic radiation begins with what might be termed "radio waves" and goes up from there. There are a number of "radio" bands, and they take up much of the spectrum. Microwaves top the list, and lead to the infrared (IR) radiation that sits just below the visible spectrum (or optical spectrum). Above visible light we have ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and beyond that, X-rays and cosmic rays. A picture might be worth a couple of hundred words, and by using the links below you can find diagrams plus additional information.


Who was the first person who proved visible light is only part of the elctromagnetic spectrum?

While I wasn't able to find a specific name associated with the unification of the electromagnetic spectrum, I would suspect that it was James Clerk Maxwell, the man who discovered the link between electricity and magnetism, thus coining the term "electro-magnetic". The spectrum itself is just a list of the ranges of energy that a photon can be at. By studying visible light we can develop the equations that eventually lead to everything from radio waves to gamma waves.


What is the spectrum of sunlight?

spectrum of light is the colors of son or u can say the elements of sun. we find out the elments of sun with the help of spectroscope, a prism in spectroscope help to break down the colors or spectra of sun light. spectrum of light is the colors of son or u can say the elements of sun. we find out the elments of sun with the help of spectroscope, a prism in spectroscope help to break down the colors or spectra of sun light.


Where can you find good jokes about the electromagnetic spectrum?

I found two EM spectrum jokes. Whether they are good, let the reader decide:An XKCD comic about the electromagnetic spectrum (please see the related link)and this (funny?) valentine:Roses reflect a light frequency at one end of the visibleelectromagnetic spectrum,Violets reflect a light frequency at the other end of the visible electromagnetic spectrum,Sugar is C12H22O11,And you release the endorphins in my brain.


Which wavelength must the light contain and the object reflect to appear white?

Refer to the EM spectrum to find exact answer about this question. Usually wavelengths are listed at bottom and frequency on top of the spectrum. Gamma rays have the smallest wavelength.


How can you use the em spectrum to explore the universe?

The HST uses EM waves to find things through echolocation or firing a beam of EM waves (or sound) at objects and seeing what a planet or star has done to change the light. Ultrasound works this way.


How many atoms are present in 80.0 mol of zirconium?

To determine the number of atoms in 80.0 mol of zirconium, you can use Avogadro's number, which is 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol. Multiply 80.0 mol by Avogadro's number to find the total number of atoms in 80.0 mol of zirconium.


What is the electromagnetic spectrum Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum do plants use for photosynthesis?

Primarily Yellow but really it uses most of the visible spectrum, just some parts more than others. Green plants actually have five type of pigments that serve in photosynthesis. When the leave of the deciduous trees turn in autumn you can see the colours of many of these as they are selectively withdrawn.
