How far does ultraviolet light penetrate water?
Ultraviolet (UV) light can penetrate water to a depth of about 1 meter in clear ocean water, but this depth decreases in more turbid or polluted water. Beyond this depth, the UV light is effectively absorbed by the water molecules. UV light is important in water as it helps to sterilize and cleanse the water by killing off bacteria and other microorganisms.
Does UV light penetrate through clouds?
Yes, UV light can penetrate through clouds, although the amount that reaches the Earth's surface is reduced compared to a clear sky.
What are the wavelength(s) of light that penetrate deepest into the ocean?
The wavelengths of light that penetrate deepest into the ocean are blue and green light. These colors can travel the farthest through water because they are absorbed less by water molecules and particles.
What color light does not penetrate 70 meters beneath the ocean surface?
Red light does not penetrate 70 meters beneath the ocean surface as it is quickly absorbed by water molecules.
What are the different wavelengths of light through water?
In water, visible light wavelengths are absorbed quickly, with red light being absorbed first and blue light penetrating the deepest. Beyond visible light, infrared light can penetrate even deeper into water. Ultraviolet light is largely absorbed by water and does not penetrate deeply.
Do hydrothermal vents receive sun light?
Usually no- they are far too deep underwater for light to penetrate.
Do red light penetrate most than gamma why?
Red light does not penetrate more than gamma rays.
Why light can penetrate lead glass but x-rays can not penetrate?
coz it cant
Does gps work underwater?
No, GPS signals cannot penetrate underwater because they are radio waves that dissipate quickly in water. Therefore, GPS does not work underwater and alternative methods like acoustic positioning systems are used for underwater navigation.
How far does green light penetrate water?
this depends on the particulates and chemical makeup of the water
How far does ultraviolet light penetrate water?

If wavelength of light is 104 of radii of earth than why it will penetrate deeper in sea?
if wavelength of light is of order of radii of earth then why it will penetrate deeper in sea?
Why can't you light a candle underwater?
You can't light a candle underwater because the water would put it out and no friction
How do you set something on fire underwater?
light a match underwater and let it burn
Is the sun included in an underwater food web?
Sunlight does penetrate a certain distance underwater, although very deep underwater there is no sunlight. In the upper waters, there are algae and other plants that use sunlight for photosynthesis, so the sun is as much a part of the underwater food web as it would be for those on land.
What happens to the wavelengths of light that penetrate into the ocean?
they are absorbed
What is the speed of light underwater?
