Monochromatic light is light of one wavelength. E.g. A red laser has one single wavelength and is therefore categorised as 'monochromatic light'. A standard light bulb emits light of many different wavelengths across the visible spectrum and therefore is not 'monochromatic light'.

Monochromatic light refers to light of a single wavelength or color. Ultraviolet light is a different category of light that falls outside the visible spectrum, with a shorter wavelength than violet light. So, monochromatic light can be any color, not specifically ultraviolet.

Is ultra violet rays visible in light region?
no
What are some fluorescent minerals?
If you put them under ultra-violet light it changes color and glows.
Does ultraviolet light have a lower frequency than visible light?
No, ultraviolet light has a higher frequency than visible light. Visible light has wavelengths between about 400 to 700 nanometers, while ultraviolet light has shorter wavelengths below 400 nanometers.
Is the light from an incandescent lamp monochromatic?
No, an incandescent bulb i.e. a bulb that emits light by the generation of heat, emits white light and is therefore not monochromatic. For a source to be monochromatic, the light emitted must be of a single wavelength.
Are red yellow and green the colors beyond violet light?
No, red, yellow, and green are not considered colors beyond violet light. Beyond violet light, there are ultraviolet rays, which are not visible to the human eye. Red, yellow, and green are part of the visible spectrum of light.
What is the comparison between visible light and ultra violet light?
You can see visible light but not ultra violet light.
Individual wavelength of visible ultra violet?
Ultra violet light is not visible!
What type of light is at 365nm?
It is ultra violet light.
Do plants need ultra violet light?
no
Which of the following electromagnetic waves are produced by the sun A infrared waves B visible light C ultra violet light D all of the above?
C ultra violet light
Is ultra violet rays visible in light region?
no
Which form of visible light is harmful?
UV (ultra violet) light
What are the differences between ultraviolet light and visible light?
ultra violet is stronger
Does ultra-violet light have longer wave-length than visible light?
No.
Does ultra violet light have a lower or higher wavelength then visible light?
Lower
What is UV waves?
UV stands for "ultra violet" and consists of light frequencies higher in value than violet light.
What is the frequency of light with a wavelength of 1x10-8m?
ultra violet
