Not necessarily. It could, but as humans cannot perceive these colors, and white is based off of our perception of a color containing red, blue, and green, ultraviolet and infrared are not necessary to create "white".

Which wavelengths are emitted by the sun?

The sun emits a range of wavelengths primarily in the visible, ultraviolet, and infrared regions. The peak of its emission is in the visible light spectrum, which is why we see the sun as a bright yellow/white. Green, blue, and violet light are also emitted, along with ultraviolet and infrared radiation.


What is white light and where is it found on the electromagnetic spectrum?

White light is a combination of all the colors in the visible spectrum, which includes red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. It is found in the middle of the electromagnetic spectrum, between infrared and ultraviolet light.


Is white light a single color- Does it have a place in the electromagnetic spectrum like red and blue do?

white light is not a single color..it is made up of 7 different colors which include red and blue and yes it is there in the electromagnetic spectrum between ultraviolet and infrared radiation


Which electromagnetic waves are produced by the sun?

Visible light because some of the energy that reaches the earth from the sun is visible light. The visible light from the sun is white light. White light is visible light of all wavelengths combined. Light from lamps in your home as well as from the fluorescent bulbs in your school is also white light.


What is elctromagnetic energy?

Electromagnetic energy is a form of energy that is transmitted through electromagnetic waves. These waves include visible light, radio waves, microwaves, infrared, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Electromagnetic energy plays a crucial role in various natural phenomena and human technologies.

Does LEDs comes in color light also?

The available color of LEDs are infrared, red, yellow, green, white, orange, blue, violet, ultraviolet and purple.


Why tube light glow in white colour?

Tube lights glow in white color because they contain a phosphor coating on the inside of the tube that emits white light when excited by electricity. The phosphor coating helps to convert the ultraviolet light produced by the electrical current into visible white light, resulting in the tube light emitting white light.


What is a white dwarfs colour spectrum?

White dwarfs have a broad spectrum, ranging from ultraviolet to near-infrared. However, they are most prominent in the blue and ultraviolet part of the spectrum, due to their high surface temperatures.


How are eletromanetic waves produced?

Well there's many ways. One is from the sun's electromagnetic waves that have infrared radiation, white light (which is all colors of the rainbow), and ultraviolet radiation in case you wanted to know more about them.


What are kind of light?

White light: makes up the rainbow Ultraviolet light: the beams that come from the sun along with Infared light


What are different kinds of light?

White light: makes up the rainbow Ultraviolet light: the beams that come from the sun along with Infared light


What are three different kinds of light?

White light: makes up the rainbow Ultraviolet light: the beams that come from the sun along with Infared light


What is the difference between a black light bulb and white light bulb?

A black light bulb emits ultraviolet (UV) light, which is typically invisible to the human eye but can cause fluorescent materials to glow. A white light bulb emits visible light across a spectrum of colors.

What All of the visible color light waves together result in light?

trueWhite light is made up of all the colors of the visible spectrum. If we drop back to the idea of the colors of the rainbow, the red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet, we'll have the colors. The colors making up white light are all the colors from red to violet. Said another way, all the colors of light from the infrared to the ultraviolet make up white light.White light is made up of every other color of light. Blue, red, yellow, orange, everything. When these colors of light are combined, they form white lightthe apex answer is: white light....... :0).
