How much of radiation from visible light waves is absorbed as the radiation passes through the atmosphere?
almost none the vast majority of visible light passes through the atmosphere.
What is a light through a crack called?
A light shining through a crack is called a beam of light. It can produce a visible streak or column of light that passes through the opening.
Which type of spectrum is produced when light from the sun passes through a prism?
A continuous spectrum is produced when light from the sun passes through a prism. This spectrum contains all the colors of the visible light spectrum seamlessly blended together.
When light passes through a prism it is separated into the colors of the the rainbow called?
Visible Spectrum
Is a beam of light visible as it passes through a colloid?
No, a beam of light is not visible as it passes through a colloid because the particles in the colloid are small and do not scatter light significantly, unlike in a suspension where the particles are bigger. This lack of scattering prevents the beam of light from being visible.
How much of the radiation from visible light waves is absorbed as the radiation passes through the atmosphere?
Roughly 20% of visible light radiation is absorbed as it passes through the Earth's atmosphere. The remaining percentage is either reflected back into space or reaches the Earth's surface. This absorption is influenced by factors such as cloud cover, aerosols, and gases in the atmosphere.
When all light passes through a material what is it called?
When all light passes through a material, it is called transparent. This means that the material allows light to pass through with little or no distortion, making objects on the other side visible.
What does a light bulb radiate?
A light bulb radiates visible light when an electric current passes through its filament, causing it to glow and produce light.
When white light passes through a prism what color bends the most?
Blue light bends the most when white light passes through a prism because it has a shorter wavelength compared to other colors in the visible spectrum.
Why is the person next to you visible?
Things are visible because light bounces off of them and we see the reflected light. Things that are transparent are invisible, because the light passes right through and doesn't bounce off.
What produces an image of a specimen by passing visible light through it?
A light microscope produces an image of a specimen by passing visible light through it. This light passes through the specimen, is refracted and magnified by the lenses in the microscope, and then projected to create a magnified image that can be viewed through the eyepiece or captured using a camera.
What color of light changes speed the most as it passes through a prism?
Violet light changes speed the most as it passes through a prism, as it has the shortest wavelength among visible colors. This causes it to refract more than other colors, leading to a wider separation of colors in the visible spectrum.
