Visible light waves are part of the?
electromagnetic spectrum.
What is visible light part of?
Visible light is part of what is called the electromagnetic spectrum. Light is electromagnetic energy, and so are radio waves, microwaves, X-rays and gamma rays.
What is visible light and what portion can humans detect?
Visible light waves are the electromagnetic waves which are detected by the human eye. They make up only a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. So, visible light is any light in which the human eye can detect.
What type of electromagnetic waves are visible?
types include (in order of increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength): radio waves, microwaves, terahertz radiation, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays
What kind of wave are electromagnetic waves?
radio waves
Is Radio waves are shorter than waves of visible light?
Yes, radio waves have a longer wavelength than visible light. They are part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What are Visible light waves?
exactly what you said its called visible light.
Where is visible light found in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Electromagnetism is manifest along a continuum between slower radio waves and faster energy gamma waves. Visible light can be found in the range between infrared light (slower than waves of visible light) and ultraviolet light (faster than waves of visible light).
Difference between infrared waves and red light waves?
Infrared waves have longer wavelengths compared to red light waves. The wavelengths of infrared waves are too long for the naked eye to see, while red light waves can be seen as part of visible light.
What is a visible form of energy?
visible light waves
Are visible light waves the same as sound waves?
No.
1 What types of waves are light and electromagnetic waves?
The type of waves that are electromagnetic are the visible light waves
