The source of the light is the source of the energy carried by the light.
The heat of a fire, the chemical energy in the tail of a firefly, the kinetic
energy of the flint scraping across the stone, the heat of the filament
in the light bulb, the electricity that powers the LED or the laser, etc.

∙ 14y agoThe source of energy in this case is in whatever produced the light. Quite often the light originates from the heat of an object. This heat, in turn, may have its origin in something else, for example, the chemical energy that fuels a fire. In the case of a light bulb, the source of energy is the electricity that keeps it glowing, but once again this is indirect; for example, in an incandescent light bulb, the electricity first turns into heat.

When light waves are emitted by a moving source scientists can measure?
When light waves are emitted by moving source scientists can measure the Doppler effects. It is a source of energy that produces light.
The intensity of light waves is a measure of what?
The intensity of light waves is a measure of the energy that is carried by the waves. Light waves are electromagnetic waves.
How are sound waves unique?
Sound waves move away from the source of energy, but other sorts of waves move perpendicular (at a right angle) to the energy source
An object that is a good radiator of electromagnetic waves is also a good?
An object that is a good radiator of electromagnetic waves is also a good source of energy (heat,light ...)
How are light waves created?
light is not composed of waves .it is a form of energy . i think the waves in light are not created because there is no reason for the creation of waves in light
Are waves a source of energy?
waves is not a source of energy

Do light waves transfer energy?
Do light waves transfer energy
Why does the beam deflection decrease as length of beam decreases?
As you bring the source of light closer to the deflector the energy of the loss of energy from the light waves decreases. So the light waves strikes the deflector with greater energy. So more energy is needed to deflect them. Hence the deflection decreases.
Do light waves carry energy?
Light waves do carry energy, and when oscillated light can carry information.
How is light transformed into energy?
they take the waves of energy from light and run the waves though a energy transporter then therefor you have energy

Could light waves be disrupted by other waves or energy source?
Yes. If you put your hand in front of a laser pointer, you disrupt the path of the laser.
The intensity of light waves is a measure of what?
The intensity of light waves is a measure of the energy that is carried by the waves. Light waves are electromagnetic waves.
What is the source of energy for a sound wave?
The source of energy for sound waves are vibrations.
