Can waves be sent down an optical fiber in the form of light?

Yes, waves can be sent down an optical fiber in the form of light. Optical fibers are specially designed to guide and transmit light waves over long distances with minimal loss. The light waves travel through the core of the optical fiber and are reflected off the walls due to total internal reflection, allowing for efficient transmission.


How do cables use light?

Do you mean fiber cables? If so, each glass fiber carries a beam of light which is modulated by the information being carried. These days the data is usually binary encoded before being transmitted.


What do you mean by optical density?

Optical density is a measurement of how much light is absorbed or transmitted by a material. It is often used to quantify the amount of a substance in a solution by measuring the absorbance of light passing through it. A higher optical density indicates more absorption of light.


What does it mean by the optical thickness in plasma?

In plasma, optical thickness refers to the measure of how effectively the plasma interacts with electromagnetic radiation, such as light. It accounts for the absorption and scattering of light as it passes through the plasma. A higher optical thickness indicates a greater interaction between the plasma and light.


Can light be contained?

Depends on what you mean by contain.If you mean, contain it so that it cannot get out, then yes, you can, if you shine it into a dark container with no way for it to leak out.If you mean contain is in store, then no, you cannot.
