infrared, ROY G BIV, ultraviolet, xray, gamma ray, cosmic ray
That's the order they fall in when you sort them by frequency or wavelength.
Rainbows cannot be created by anything living. It just creates after a long rain shower. When the air mixes up with the light and the moisture, It creates a rainbow! Rainbows can be found in many different places all over the world! So someday try to find a rainbow. Remember it can be found in many different places!
Emission spectrum: lines emitted from an atom.Absorption spectrum: absorbed wavelengths of a molecule.
Actually, for most people, probably 98%, it is not possible to see UV light itself, you can only see the florescent effect resulting from UV light being reflected back as normal light by objects that have this property. The lens of the human eye filters out the actual UV spectrum in a normal human eye.HOWEVER, some people have to undergo eye surgery to remove the lens (for various reasons) and once the lens is removed, those individuals (myself included) CAN actually see some of the UV spectrum.Since I was a kid, I could not understand why "black lights" were called by that name, to me, they appear a very bright white-blue-violet color. They appear that way to me until I put my glasses on, because my glasses have a UV-blocking coating on them. As a result of my being able to see UV, when I am outdoors many colors have a more blueish-purple tint to them.I am not sure how much of the UV spectrum people with my condition can actually see, but it is certainly very noticeable. So yes, SOME humans can view ultraviolet light.
all of the colors put together..... it is mainly found in space..... red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. when different colurs of the light spectrum combine they turn white instead of turning black the way colours like paint for example turn.
Well, you might just put it in a separate category, and call it "light energy". But it is probably better to place it in the broader category of "electromagnetic waves".
The collection of wavelengths is called the electromagnetic spectrum. It includes all forms of electromagnetic radiation, from radio waves to gamma rays.
As with any other wavelength of the electromagnetic spectrum, they can be good or bad depending on the use to which they are put.
White light is a combination of all the colors of the spectrum: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. When these colors are combined, they form white light. Each color has a different wavelength, and when they are all present together, they create the sensation of white light to our eyes.
Humans can benefit from seeing non-visible wavelengths as well. How is this if we can only see visible light? Let's learn more. (continue on to Invisible Light) Many insects are able to detect wavelengths that humans are not able to see. Bees, for example, can detect three colors: ultraviolet, blue, and yellow, but not red. The ability to see red is actually rare for all insects. The butterfly is an exception to this rule. Butterflies are believed to have the widest visual range of any animal. Various species of butterfly can detect wavelengths anywhere from 310 nm to 700 nm. To humans, male and female butterflies may look the same, but butterflies are able to identify each other easily because of ultraviolet markings on their wings. Butterflies and insects are also attracted to ultraviolet nectar of certain flowers. The photos below other simulate how humans, bees, and butterflies see the same flower.
what colors did you set it at?
No. A rainbow is 6...or 7 if you will...different colors put together...(red,orange,yellow,green,blue,violet aka purple or red,orange,yellow,green,blue,indigo,violet aka purple)but, when all put together in the right order...what color is it?
The ones used to transmit to subs underwater are a mile or two in length, but a wavelength equal to the Earth's diameter (8000 miles) is quite possible. (The sun can and does put out waves in excess of 1000 miles - and they can play havoc with transmission lines.)
When sunlight passes through a prism, it is refracted or bent, causing it to separate into its component colors, creating a spectrum of colors known as a rainbow. This effect is due to the different wavelengths of each color of light, with longer wavelengths appearing red and shorter wavelengths appearing violet.
The lines of the Lyman series are observed in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum. These lines correspond to transitions of an electron in a hydrogen atom from higher energy levels to the n=1 energy level.
There are two possible answers. When the entire color spectrum of light is shone at once, it appears white. When a rainbow of pigments is mixed, the result will be a murky brown.
The answer is iron.
Light Spectrum Analysis. Different elements reflect different wavelengths of light. Simply put if you look at th different colors of light that is reflected from something you can determine the basic elements it is composed of.
