Our eyes cant perceive motion faster than 1/10 of a second and light can travel about 10,000m in 1/10seconds. Since a normal room is on an average 7m x 7m, there is no observable delay in between turning on a light and seeing the emitted light.
How are cone cells adapted to carry out their function?
There are cone cells in your retina. They give you perception of colour. You have cone cells which perceive blue, green and red colours. So cones cells which perceive blue colour are stimulated by high frequency light waves. Green light is perceived by cone cells, which are stimulated by light waves of medium frequency. Red light is perceived by cone cells, which are stimulated by light waves of low frequency. This is one of the unimaginable adaptation of the human eye. With more or less stimulation of these three primary types of cone cells, you can perceive the thousands of different colours.
Is light brighter than you can perceive it?
This is a difficult question to answer, as the brightness of light is itself perceived, rather than actual.
