Depends on the source. Ordinary(incandescent) light bulbs have a spectra that's very similar to that of the sun, while fluorescents and LEDs in particular tend to be much more narrow and contain fewer colours.

What are the differences between artificial and natural light sources?

Artificial light sources are man-made and include light bulbs and LEDs, while natural light sources come from the sun or fire. Artificial light can be controlled and adjusted, while natural light changes throughout the day. Artificial light can also be harsher and less energy-efficient than natural light.


What light contains all the colors of the rainbow?

It's "white light". When all colours of the rainbow are combined in their purest form (light), they create white light. All colours of the rainbow can be derived from the colours red, green and blue. These 3 colours are known as the RGB colour model (Red, Green, Blue). When these three colours are combined in their purest form, they also form white light


Is there any difference between solar and artificial light?

Yes, there are differences between solar light and artificial light. Solar light is natural light that comes from the sun, while artificial light is man-made light produced by electrically powered sources. Solar light typically provides a broader spectrum of light, while artificial light can be tailored to specific color temperatures and intensity levels.


What are some examples of artificial light?

Examples are lightbulbs,neon lights, traffic lights,headlights, concert lights.


What makes us not see stars at night?

Drastic weather conditions and also light pollution. Extreme exposure to artificial light will slow down your dark adaptation which is getting used to the night sky after staying in a room with artificial light.


What would happen if there were no artificial soursesof light?

Without artificial sources of light, we would rely solely on natural light sources such as the sun and moon. This would likely lead to increased reliance on daylight hours for activities and potentially impact productivity during nighttime hours. It could also have effects on safety and security in areas where artificial light is essential for visibility.


What are the secondary colors when the primary colors of light are combined?

The primary light colours are red, green and blue. The seconday light colours are yellow, magenta and cyan. The color palette used for mixing light is also called the "additive palette." The paint mixing palette is also called the "subtractive palette."


In art what does light mean?

Quite a few actually. It can mean natural or artificial light used in the composition. It can also be a light color or area.


I am looking at an apartment that is lacking in windows and am looking for ways to lighten up a windowless room?

The two easiest ways to lighten the rooms are paint (light colours) and artificial light. - Painting your rooms with light or bright colours, -very pale yellows and creams (warm colours), or greens and blues (cool colours) work well to give the room personality (as opposed to leaving the walls white. Paint your ceilings white, to add to the reflectiveness of the surfaces. - Then add good full spectrum light. The energy efficient compact florescent bulbs now come in a "natural" or "daylight" light or full spectrum light, which is much easier to live with and gives colour a more natural look. They also help to keep you a bit healthier (specifically if you suffer from SADD) - and cuts down on eyestrain and the headaches that can come from it.


How does color affect readability?

Colours should also be contrasting. Light text on a light backround is hard to see. Dark text on a dark background is hard to see. So you need to get the mix of your colours right so that it is easier to read what you have.


When white light is refracted through a prism different color emerge where do the different colors come from?

Type your answer here... OK. White light is made of the colours of the spectrum (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet - these are the same as the colours of the rainbow). The reason you see these colours instead of wwhite when you shine white light through a prism is that the prism "bends" the light - which splits it into the colours of the spectrum. Red light is the longest, so it is bent the least, and Violet is the shortest - so it is bent the most. This is also how rainbows are made - the rain droplets act as prisms to disperse (split) the light into the colours of the spectrum.
