Infrared waves, or IR radiation, is a type of electromagnetic radiation that has a wavelength greater than the wavelengths in the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum; they are located adjacent to visible region and the microwave region at its other end. Infrared radiation can be emitted ...
The sun, for example, is a natural source of visible waves. When looking at an object, our eyes see the color of light reflected, and all other colors are absorbed. Ultraviolet: Ultraviolet (UV) rays are what cause us to become sunburned. Humans can't see UV rays, but some insects ...
Our eyes are sensitive to the particular wavelength of visible light, but not to the shorter wavelength of higher energy X-ray waves or the longer wavelength of the lower energy radio waves. Visible light photons and X-ray photons are both produced by the movement of electrons in atoms. Elec...
Because the lines are spaced very closely together, your brain integrates them into a single image. A TV screen normally has about 480 lines visible from top to bottom. In the next section, you'll find out how the TV "paints" these lines on the screen. Painting the TV Screen Standard...

Here’s the thing: the pond was never entirely serene. Wind, insects, fish, debris, the liquid’s viscosity, etc., are always there to affect the ripples. Similarly, visible and invisible stuff around us can adversely affect Wi-Fi signals. The point is that at any given time, there are...

As a result, we may be experiencing a renewal of the Solow Paradox of the 1980s, with the digital age around us but not yet visible in the productivity statistics. The importance of these waves was not equal across countries (Exhibit 4). The first wave mattered more in Sweden and the ...
Our first stop is the ancient world, where some of the earliest scientists and philosophers pondered the true nature of this mysterious substance that stimulates sight and makes things visible.Contents What Is Light? Light as Rays Light as Waves Light Frequencies Light as Particles Wave-...
On the ground, we see the arc of the rainbow that is visible above the horizon. Sometimes you see a double rainbow -- a sharp rainbow with a fainter rainbow on top of it. The fainter rainbow is produced in the same way as the sharper rainbow, but instead of the light reflecting once...
