How are light waves sensed?

Answer 1

Light in the visible spectrum

Answer 2

There are photoreceptor cells in retina. They get stimulated by light. They stimulate the nerve and signal is passed to brain for processing. By interpretation of that signal you can see the object.

Answer 3

Light has to be scattered from an object and the light has to be detected by the eye. The light from the object goes past your cornea and it reaches your retina. An image forms on the retina (upside down) and is processed through the optic nerves and to the brain. Rod and cones also help by detecting color (cones) and help in dim light (rods).

Answer 4

First, the light passes through the cornea. the light then passes through the pupil. It then travels through the lens. Muscles bends the lens to focus the image. Rods and Cones are what detects light. They are pigments that are light sensitive. Rods detect dim light and cones detect bright lights.

Answer 5

Several electronic components have been developed that are sensitive to

electromagnetic radiation of various wavelengths, and most of them can be

tailored to respond actively to visible light.

And of course, you have a pair of highly effective detectors that you carry around

with you wherever you go.

Answer 6

Light waves are sensed by specialized cells in the retina of the eye called photoreceptors. These cells, known as rods and cones, convert incoming light signals into electrical signals that are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve. The brain processes these signals, allowing us to perceive and interpret the visual information.

Answer 7

light can be sensed by us with the back of our brains.(we dont see with our eyes we see with our brains).

Answer 8

The easiest way is to turn your eyes toward the suspected source.
