Question 2
electromaghetic spectrum would your device use and why?
2) Why do polarized sunglasses result in blank or partially blank screens on liquid
crystal displaces in tables/cellphones and computer screens? What could you do to
minimize the problem while still wearing the polarized sunglasses?
3) Do higher energy gamma rays travel faster, slower or at the same speed in space
than lower energy radio waves?
4) Why are the light sources used in high end optic fiber networks either laser or
LED's? Why would it be problematic to use incandescent light as fiber optic cable
light source?
5) Consider these 3 situations: a pilot looking at instruments and an aircraft is in front
and closely approaching. A driver focused on their cellphone while a pedestrian is
on the road and, a soldier who is distracted by the tv while being on a watch tower
on base. In these 3 situations the dangerous objects are in the range of vision but
are more unlikely to be seen by the observer, which part of the retina captures the
light of the object in question?
