    White light and refraction: White light from the Sun is made up of all the various colours of visible light. Each of these colours has a different wavelength - red light (at one edge of the rainbow) has a wavelength of ~650 nm‚ whilst violet light (at the other edge) has a wavelength of ~400 nm. When light travels from one medium (say air) to another (water)‚ it changes speed‚ and if the light enters at an angle‚ it will bend. This is known as refraction. Shorter wavelength light (such as violet)

    does a Lens Refract Light? Different Lenses refract light in different ways. First‚ we will look at a double convex lens. Several light rays will approach the convex lens in a parallel manner. After they approach the lens‚ each ray will refract towards the normal. The light is passing from an optical less dense medium (Air) into a more dense medium (such as plastic or glass) at this boundary. Since the light rays are passing the boundary from a less dense medium in which light travels fast (optically

    Colour of Light Effects on Plant Growth Introduction Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. Plants need water‚ Co2 and light energy to create sugar. Photosynthesis occurs mainly in leaves and in 2 phases: light reaction and dark reaction. The light reactions converts light energy to chemical (Biology.clc.uc.edu‚ 2014). This chemical reaction must take place in the thylakoid membrane. Chlorophyll (the green pigment involved

    infrasonic waves). Light is both part particle and part wave. Light is "the electromagnetic radiation that may be perceived by the human eye". It consists of photons‚ which are massless bundles of concentrated electromagnetic energy. Light’s lower frequency is red‚ and the higher frequency is blue. Like sound‚ light has frequencies humans can’t detect. Ultraviolet light is at a frequency higher than violet‚ and infrared is at the frequency lower than the red of visible light. We get UV (ultraviolet)
