All of the things that happen optically must include light. Optics is the study of lights' behavior when it is manipulated by lenses, mirrors and sometimes smoke. Optics make LASER experiments work and reading for the visually impaired possible.

∙ 9y agoTwo phenomena that can produce various wavelengths of light are heating a substance, causing ionization and excitation of gases, and nuclear fission at the center of the sun or stars. Visible light corresponds to a wavelength of 400 - 700 nanometers.

Light travels in a material with greater .......?
Optical Density. Which often is caused by normal density.
Are optical and light microscopes the same?
Yes. The optical microscope is the original light microscope.
What do you mean by optical density?
optical density is the amount of light
Is a light pen mechanical or optical device?
Light pen is a mechanical or optical device? i don't know answer for this
When a light wave enters into a medium of different optical density?
index of refraction ( or refractive index)
What is the optical illusion caused by atmospheric conditions?
A mirage is an optical illusion which is caused by atmospheric conditions. This is often due to the refraction of light from the sky by heated air.
What is a trick of light called?
A "trick of light" is another word for one form of optical illusion, where visual appearances are altered by physical phenomena and may be misleading or misinterpreted.

Optical Density. Which often is caused by normal density.
What is a rainbow What particles is it made of?
A rainbow is caused from light scattered by raindrops. Sunlight is composed of many different colors, each with its own wavelength, meaning each color diffracts at a different angle causing the different colors of the rainbow. A rainbow is an optical phenomena - so it is not made of particles.
What is the corona around the moon?
It is not the most outer layer of the moon, It is an optical phenomena which occurs as light reflected by the moon is then diffracted through water droplets (clouds) in our atmosphere. forming a halo.
Why do we see mirages?
First of all, what's a mirage? Mirages are not optical illusions, as many people (and Web sites!) think. They are real phenomena of atmospheric optics, caused by strong ray-bending in layers with steep thermal gradients. Because mirages are real physical phenomena, they can be photographed.
Is there a wish granted for the person who ever finds the end of a rainbow?
There is no scientific evidence to support the concept of a wish being granted if one were to find the end of a rainbow. Rainbows are optical and meteorological phenomena caused by the reflection, refraction, and dispersion of light in water droplets. Finding the end of a rainbow is purely a matter of perspective and the conditions of light and water droplets in the atmosphere.
Is a Rainbow a Natural Light Or Artificial Light?
Natural light - a rainbow is an optical phenomenon that is caused by both refraction of light in water droplets in the atmosphere, resulting in all the colours of light appearing in the sky, in the form of an arc.
Are optical and light microscopes the same?
Yes. The optical microscope is the original light microscope.
What are the phenomena shown by light?
light is white
What does optical system mean?
"Optical" means related to light, often to visible light. So, a system that works with light.
What do you mean by optical density?
optical density is the amount of light
