Answer:

The Light We See

Visible light includes all the wavelengths of light that the human eye can detect. It allows us to see objects in the world around us. Without visible light, we would only be able to sense most objects by sound, touch, or smell. Like humans, most other organisms also depend on visible light, either directly or indirectly. Many animals—including predators of jellyfish—use visible light to see. Plants and certain other organisms use visible light to make food in the process of photosynthesis. Without this food, most other organisms would not be able to survive.

Q: Do you think that some animals might be able to see light that isn’t visible to humans?

A: Some animals can see light in the infrared or ultraviolet range of wavelengths. For example, mosquitoes can see infrared light, which is emitted by warm objects. By seeing infrared light, mosquitoes can tell where the warmest, blood-rich areas of the body are located.

Incandescence

Most of the visible light on Earth comes from the sun. The sun and other stars produce light because they are so hot. They glow with light due to their extremely high temperatures. This way of producing light is called incandescence. Incandescent light bulbs also produce light in this way. When electric current passes through a wire filament inside an incandescent bulb, the wire gets so hot that it glows

What type of heat do we get from sun
seraphim [82]
The type of heat that the Sun emits is called UV (Ultra Violet) rays. This is a natural type of heat, but it can also be dangerous if you expose yourself to too much UV heat, causing "sunburns", or even skin cancer.

In a solution,a Is the substance being dissolved
Elena-2011 [213]
In a solution, a SOLUTE is the substance being dissolved.

In a solution, a SOLVENT is the substance in which something is dissolved.

For example in salt water, the salt is the solute. And the water is the solvent. Usually, which substance has a larger amount in the solution can be called a solvent. It doesn't matter if it's a gas, solid, or liquid. They can all be solute or solvents.

Which force acts as an object to move it from rest or a constant straight line motion
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

The force is Inertia

Explanation:

The force that acts on an object to move it from rest or a constant straight line motion is known as Inertia.

In physics the above statement is governed by Newton's first law of motion which is also known as Law of Inertia.

This law states that, an object that is at rest will remain at rest and an object that is moving will continue to move in a straight line with constant speed, if and only if the net force acting on the object is zero.

This implies that, A stationary object will remain motionless if no force acts on it while a object with constant velocity will continue moving with constant velocity until a force acts on it (neglecting resistance from air and friction).

What is the energy range (in joules) of photons of wavelength 410 nm to 750 nm ? Express your answers using two significant figu
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

4.9 x 10^-19 J, 2.7 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

first wavelength, λ1 = 410 nm = 410 x 10^-9 m

Second wavelength, λ2 = 750 nm = 750 x 10^-9 m

The relation between the energy and the wavelength is given by

E = h c / λ

Where, h is the Plank's constant and c be the velocity of light.

h = 6.63 x 10^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

So, energy correspond to first wavelength

E1 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (410 x 10^-9) = 4.85 x 10^-19 J

E1 = 4.9 x 10^-19 J

So, energy correspond to second wavelength

E2 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (750 x 10^-9) = 2.652 x 10^-19 J

E2 = 2.7 x 10^-19 J
