It reasonable to treat light as a ray instead of a wave in everyday situations because "the wavelengths of light are so short that they wave effects are negligible".

<h3>What is wavelength of light?</h3>

The distance between the two crests or troughs of the light wave is known as the wavelength of light. Using the Greek letter lambda , it is identified. As a result, wavelength refers to the separation between one wave's crest or dip and the following wave.

Some properties of wavelength of light are-

  • The wavelengths and frequency of these distinct light colors vary.
  • The visible spectrum's longest wavelength and lowest frequency are found in red light.
  • The visible spectrum's violet color has the shortest wavelength and highest frequency.
  • A small band of wavelengths, roughly 380 to 730 nm, make up visible light.
  • Our eyes interpret these wavelengths as various hues.
  • If only one wavelength or a small range of wavelengths are seen, they are perceived as having a specific hue.

The four properties of light waves are-

  • reflection,
  • refraction,
  • diffraction and
  • interference.

North American land claims changed drastically
Alekssandra [29.7K]

In 1763, the map shows that:

  • Britain established the Proclamation Line of 1763 to  try to limit colonial expansion.
  • The French had lost nearly all their territory by  1763.

The French and Indian War ended in defeat for the French in 1763 and they signed a treaty with Great Britain by which:

  • they lost virtually all their possessions in North America
  • they lost Louisiana to Spain

When the British received all this new territory, they did not want the colonists in the 13 colonies to move into them so they issued the Proclamation Line of 1763 that prohibited colonists from moving into those areas.

In conclusion, the British received a lot of new territory as a result of the French and Indian War but they prohibited the colonists from moving into it.
