Why?
From fireworks to stars, the color of light is useful in finding out what's in matter. The emission of g
by hydrogen and other atoms has played a key role in understanding the electronic structure of atoms.
Trace materials, such as evidence from a crime scene, lead in paint or mercury in drinking water, can be
identified by heating or burning the materials and examining the color(s) of light given off in the form of
bright-line spectra.

- Crystal lattices can be examined with X-rays but not UV. Why?arrow_forwardLight passes from a material with index of refraction 1.3 into one with index of refraction 1.2. Compared with the incident ray, what happens to the refracted ray? (a) It bends toward the normal. (b) It is undeflected. (c) It bends away from the normal.arrow_forwardDetermine whether each of the following statements is true (T) or false (F). (a) The angle in Snell's law is measured between the ray and a line perpendicular to the surface. (b) The speed of light in a material increases as the materials index of refraction increases. (c) The ratio v/ of a photons speed to its wavelength has the same value for any index of refraction n. (d) Photons of blue light have a higher energy than photons of red light. (e) A photons energy depends on its brightness.arrow_forward
- Does the refractive index of a certain material depend on the color of light incident on it? Explain.arrow_forwardOn a sunny summer day, with the sun overhead, you can stand under a tree and look on the ground at the pattern of light that has passed throughgaps between the leaves. You may see illuminated circles of varying brightness. Why are there circles, when the gaps between the leaves have irregular shapes?arrow_forwardPOSSIBLE POINTS In the summer, people often wear light colored clothing to stay cool.

- According to the Young-Helmholtz theory of color vision, humans have cell receptors called "cones" in their retina that have peak sensitivities in the Red, Green and Blue wavelength ranges. When light reflects off a surface, we perceive the color or colors that are reflected; other colors are absorbed by the material. Which TWO of the following statements are correct? Because leaves on a plant reflect green light when illuminated by white light, other colors are absorbed and are therefore necessary for photosynthesis. If a yellow light illuminates a white book, the reflection will cause the red and green cones of an observer to be stimulated and will send a signal to the brain by way of the optic nerve. If both a red light and a green light illuminate a white book, the reflection will cause the blue cones of an observer to be stimulated and will send a signal to the brain by way of the optic nerve. Because leaves on a plant reflect green light when illuminated by white light, the green…arrow_forwardThe explanation given in your textbook for the color of the setting Sun should apply equally well to the rising Sun, since sunlight travels the same distance through the atmosphere to reach your eyes at either sunrise or sunset.

- The atmosphere of Jupiter is more than 1000km thick .from the surface of Jupiter would you expect to see a white sun?arrow_forward3) Since we are treating light as a particle, it is appropriate to consider a pool ball bouncing off the edges of a pool table as analogous to reflection of a light particle from a mirror. Consider the pool table and cue ball shown below. The table is 8' x 4' and the spacing between white marks along the outer cushion of the table is 1'. Imagine that you want to hit the cue ball in such a way as to hit the ball located near the top middle pocket. Based on the locations of the other balls, you determine that the only way to do this is to "double bank'" the ball off two sides as shown below. If estimate that you must hit the first side at a point 3 1/3 feet from the cue ball, determine the angle O which the cue ball will make as it is approaching the other ball. you 8' 1' 1' 100 C45 4' 53° Cue Ball 65° Mi 90 120° 3 1/3' dataarrow_forwardA ray from a sonic boom strikes the Earth's surface at an incident angle of 20 degrees.
