Wavelength of Light

Light is a specific type of electromagnetic energy. It is the light that is identifiable and visible to the naked eye, and it is responsible for the feeling of light. Visible light has wavelengths between 400 and 700 nanometers, while infrared has longer wavelengths and ultraviolet has shorter wavelengths. The visible light wavelength implies a […]

Wave Nature of Light

Introduction Observing the interaction of atoms with various forms of radiant, or transmitted, energy, such as the energy associated with visible light that we detect with our eyes, infrared radiation that we feel as heat, ultraviolet light that causes sunburn, and x-rays that produce images of our teeth or bones, scientists discovered much of what

Wave Electronics

A physical wave is usually always restricted to a finite region of space, which is referred to as its domain. Seismic waves created by earthquakes are only relevant in the planet’s interior and surface, and may be ignored elsewhere. However, waves with infinite domains that stretch throughout space are extensively studied in mathematics and are

Value of C

The speed of light in vacuum, typically abbreviated as c, is an important scientific constant in many fields of physics. Its actual speed is 299792458 metres per second (about 300000 kilometres per hour or 186000 miles per hour). The upper limit for the speed at which conventional matter, energy, or any signal containing information may

Unit of Light

Light is a form of electromagnetic energy that travels through space. Light-sensitive animals, such as humans, use it to see and understand the world around them. Although the lights appear to be unique, they are actually just another form of electromagnetic energy similar to microwaves and radio waves. As it rushes through the earth, light

Ultraviolet Waves

Ultraviolet waves are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum and lie in the region of short-wavelength radiations. It resides between X-Rays and the visible light and has a wavelength of 10 – 400 nm, which is shorter than that of visible light but longer than the wavelength of X-rays. As it has a wavelength shorter

Transverse nature of electromagnetic waves

Introduction An electromagnetic wave consists of an electric and a magnetic wave in which electric and magnetic field vectors are perpendicular to each other and they are also perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. This nature of electromagnetic waves is known as the transverse nature of electromagnetic waves. Reflection Reflection means a
