Because there are no particles large enough to reflect the light back to the viewer.

How do the lasers work in laser tag?

When a laser tag phaser fires a shot what you see is a laser beam. The laser beam is for affect only. What scores the actual hit or tag depends on the system in which you are playing )typically it's an IR or infrared signal), much like the kind used in your television remote control. While you are firing an actual laser in laser tag, the actual entity tagging an opponent's pack is typically an IR signal. Agree" sales(@)kitelaser.com The above answer is fairly accurate, however to be more specific, it's not Infra-Red signals that determine whether a tag is scored as much as it is FM signals, much like the frequencies used in radio. Disagree: I know for a fact that pure laser tag, without IR or FM first existed commercially in 1986 and used solar cells as receivers. Why it never really took off until recently I do not know.

What is monochromatic wave?

A monochromatic wave is a wave that consists of a single frequency or wavelength. It is also often referred to as a pure tone, as it contains only one color or frequency. Monochromatic waves are commonly used in optics and acoustics for studying wave behaviors.


What is the difference between laser and infrared?

"Laser" is a device that's used to generate very pure electromagnetic radiation,at one single frequency and with all of its photons vibrating in the same directionat the same time.Many different frequencies can be generated by different types of lasers.Infrared radiation is just one of them.


What properties of laser light led to its use in light shows?

Laser light has properties such as coherence (monochromatic and in-phase waves) and directionality (narrow beam) that make it ideal for creating sharp, bright, and vivid visuals in light shows. These properties allow for precise control over the colors, shapes, and movements of the light beams, making them a popular choice for creating dynamic and mesmerizing effects in light shows.


What is the conductivity of pure water?

Pure water is a poor conductor of electricity due to its low concentration of ions.

Difference between laser and ordinary light?

Laser lights are spectrally pure, i.e. one wavelength, and they are coherent, i.e. all phota in phase. As a result, the beam of a laser light tends to stay as beam, and not diverge due to scattering.


Why do lasers appear in smoke or water?

In order to be seen, light must reach the eye. Since laser light is coherent, it travels only along its line of propogation, so there is no light to be viewed from the side of the beam. However, when a laser beam passes through fog, it is reflected off of tiny particulate droplets of water in the fog (or smoke particles in smoke), so is diffused in all directions and can be observed. In order to be seen passing through water, there must be suspended particles in the water from which the light can be reflected. The beam should not be visible as it passes through perfectly pure water.


Is food coloring a pure substance?

No, it is not. It completely dissolves. If you want to check if a mixture is a colloid shine a beam of light through it. (A flashlight should work, although a laser pointer is best. If you're having trouble getting a thinnish beam with your flashlight take a piece of cardboard or some other opaque material and cut a hole in it. Then shine the flashlight through that.) If you can see the beam of light the mixture is a colloid. Pure water, for example, is not a colloid. I have found that flour and water makes a very nice colloid. Smoke, fog/mist, clouds and honey are some naturally occurring colloids.


Properties of laser?

Laser has certain unique properties, namely, mono-chromatic, coherence and directionality, compared to ordinary sources of light. The most important property of laser light is that it can be precisely collimated into a parallel beam.
