Visible light is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that enables humans to see. It consists of wavelengths that range from about 400 nanometers (violet) to 700 nanometers (red). These wavelengths are detected by our eyes' photoreceptor cells, allowing us to perceive colors and shapes.
What else can I help you with?
Which waves can humans see on the electromagnetic spectrum?
Humans can see a specific range of electromagnetic waves known as visible light, which includes wavelengths from about 400 to 700 nanometers. These waves correspond to the colors of the rainbow, from violet to red. Any waves with wavelengths longer or shorter than this range are not visible to the human eye.
What electromagnetic waves can humans not see?
Humans cannot see ultraviolet, infrared, or radio waves as they fall outside the visible spectrum of light. Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths shorter than violet light, while infrared waves have wavelengths longer than red light. Radio waves have even longer wavelengths.
Can you see ultraviolet waves?
No you cannot. An example of those waves would be those released by the sun and you cannot see those.
How do light waves work to enable us to see objects around us?
Light waves are electromagnetic waves that travel through space and interact with objects. When light waves hit an object, they are either absorbed, reflected, or transmitted. Our eyes detect the reflected light waves and send signals to our brain, which processes the information and allows us to see the object.
What type of electromagnetic waves are humans able to see?
Humans are able to see visible light, which is a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Visible light ranges in wavelength from approximately 400 to 700 nanometers and is perceived by our eyes as different colors.
Which waves can humans see on the electromagnetic spectrum?
Humans can see a specific range of electromagnetic waves known as visible light, which includes wavelengths from about 400 to 700 nanometers. These waves correspond to the colors of the rainbow, from violet to red. Any waves with wavelengths longer or shorter than this range are not visible to the human eye.
Howbettter can bees see than humans?
Bees can see higher frequencies of electromagnetic waves than humans can. Bees see flowers in different colors then we do. Bees see color about triple the speed as humans do.
The only type of electromagnetic radiation we can see is?
Visible-- waves are the only electromagnetic waves we can see.
Do the Electromagnetic waves that humans can see make up the electronagnetic spectrum or do they make up the visible spectrum?
The visible spectrum.
What electromagnetic waves can humans not see?
Humans cannot see ultraviolet, infrared, or radio waves as they fall outside the visible spectrum of light. Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths shorter than violet light, while infrared waves have wavelengths longer than red light. Radio waves have even longer wavelengths.
Can you see ultraviolet waves?
No you cannot. An example of those waves would be those released by the sun and you cannot see those.
What section of the electromagnetic spectrum would you use to study waves that humans can see?
The visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum would be used to study waves that humans can see. This portion of the spectrum includes colors ranging from red to violet and is the only part of the spectrum visible to the human eye.

Do electromagnetic waves need a medium?
No. We get electromagnetic waves from the sun. We can see stars and sun even though there is a virtual vacuum between us. Electromagnetic radiation or electromagnetic waves includes the radio and television signals that we can get from space satellites.Sound is not an electromagnetic wave, it needs a medium.
