    Figure 6-18 in my text book was an example of an electromagnetic spectrum‚ which is all wavelengths of light both seen and unseen (Trefil & Hazen‚ 2010). The display of the electromagnetic spectrum showed gamma rays‚ X-rays‚ ultraviolet light‚ infrared‚ visible light‚ microwave‚ radio waves‚ as well as a visible spectrum wavelength (Trefil & Hazen‚ 2010). The diagram shows at what frequency and wavelength each wave moves and what it allows us to see‚ hear‚ and feel with visible light and/or

    something depends mainly on which wavelengths of light it emits‚ refects‚ or transmits. Color is also determined by which frequency or which colors of the rainbow are present. And we see what comes back to us as an combination of spectrums or colors and Sometimes a single color. But it depends on what frequency is reflected back. While light comes from the sun and reflects on any object we see. There are seven different Types of Electromagnetic Spectrum wavelengths‚ Such As Radiowaves‚ Microwaves

    resolution or resolving power (ability to distinguish between two nearby points) and not magnification. 2. Mircoscope resolution is limited by the wavelength of the source of illumination (visible light‚ in the case of an optical microscope) and the numerical aperture of the lenses. Smallest object viewable limited by resolution which is limited by wavelength of the source of illumination and N.A of the lenses.

    composed of many different wavelengths of light combined together. A spectrophotometer is an instrument that shines a single wavelength of light of a known intensity into a solution and then measures the intensity of the light exiting the solution. If a solution contains any compound that absorbs light‚ the intensity of light exiting the solution will be less than what entered the solution. On the other hand‚ if none of the compounds in the solution absorb at that wavelength of light‚ then the intensity

    objects of different temperatures emit spectra that peak at different wavelengths. Hotter objects emit shorter wavelengths‚ thus appearing bluer‚ whilst colder objects emit longer wavelengths‚ appearing redder. A star’s surface temperature can be deciphered using this method by seeing its color and surmising the amount of heat it’s giving off. 7. Wien’s law states that the peak of the emission spectrum shifts to shorter wavelengths as the temperature increases‚ this means that the color changes from
