Chlorofluorocarbons Cfcs Nitrogen Oxides
1,336 wordsDramatic loss of ozone in the lower stratosphere over Antarctica was first noticed in the 1970 's by a research group from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) who were monitoring the atmosphere above Antarctica from a research station. The Halley Research Station BAS research stations in the Antarctic Rumor has it that when the first measurements were taken in 1985, the drop in ozone levels in the stratosphere were so dramatic that at first the scientists thought their instruments were defective....

Speed Of Light Time Of Day
1,333 wordsOur view of the sky at night is possible because of the emission and reflection of light. 'Light' is the better-known term for the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes waves in the visible, ultra-violet, infra-red, microwave, radio, X-ray and gamma-ray regions. The scale of the spectrum is so large that no region is distinct, several overlap each other. Each of these regions in the electromagnetic spectrum represent transverse waves, travelling as electrical and magnetic fields which interac...

Nuclear Fusion White Dwarf
1,160 wordsThe night sky, unimaginably deep, is a breathtaking sight. Some three thousand stars can be seen with the naked eye, twinkling points of light that have inspired the human spirit since the dawn of time. Study of the stars, based on data collected from visible-light telescopes, radio telescopes, and detectors wavelengths can now reveal extraordinary amounts of information: size, temperature, chemical composition, internal structure, distance and rotation rate, among other factors.

There are about 75 to 150 million cones in the human retina. Rods do not detect lines, points, or color. They perceive only light and dark tones in an image. The sensitive rods can determine outlines of objects in almost complete darkness. They make it possible for people to see in darkness or at night. Cones are the keenest of the retina's receptor cells. They detec...

An Introduction To Fiber Optics Technology
1,471 wordsThroughout time, speed and efficiency in the telecommunications industry has progressed at a rapid pace due to fiber optic technology. In 1979, AT& T revolutionized the telecommunications industry by producing a medium for data transmission which used light, called fiber optic cable. This medium created a bandwidth of 44. 736 Mbps and could multiplex 672 trunk circuits onto one fiber (Cole, 2000). However, this invention was only the beginning of a great addition to telecommunications, one t...

D Sezgin Sun Types Of Lasers Laser
684 wordsThe light beam produced by most lasers is pencil-sized, and maintains its size and direction over very large distances; this sharply focused beam of coherent light is suitable for a wide variety of applications. Lasers have been used in industry since 1964 for cutting and boring metals and other materials, and for inspecting optical equipment. In medicine, they have been used in surgical operations. Lasers have been used in several kinds of scientific research. Lasers have opened new fields in s...

This creates common node points in the inner plane structure of the chakra. Vibrations of different frequencies and different wavelengths all begin and end together at these common node points. This is made possible by the fact that the wavelengths of the various vibrat...

Dust Particles Blue Light
1,256 wordsExploration of a Natural Colour Phenomenon Why does the sky colour change? To answer this question, one should be aware of the Earth's atmosphere, and light. What is the atmosphere? The sky is filled with air which is a mixture of tiny gas molecules and small bits of solid stuff, like dust (Why Is the Sky Blue? ). The air constitutes the atmosphere, a gaseous shell surrounding the Earth and some other planets. The main gaseous components of the atmosphere are nitrogen (78. 09 %) and oxygen (20. ...

Depending On Wavelengths Wavelengths Of The Electromagnetic Spectrum Astronomical
315 wordsAstronomical Spectroscopy In the article Astronomical spectroscopy, the author tells us about what the spectrum is and how it is shown in the nature and astronomy. A spectrum is the result of decomposition of light on colors of which it consists. During studying a spectrum astrophysicists have made the major openings. A vivid example of a spectrum in the nature is the rainbow. For studying a light source, scientists use a triangular glass prism or diffraction grating to spread out light in a spe...

Color Blindness Ed
709 wordsColor Color Blindless Color Blindless Color blindness is the inability to distinguish particular colors. It is generally an inherited trait, but can result from a chemical imbalance or eye injury. There are three primary colors. They are red, blue, and yellow. All other colors are the results of different combinations of primary colors. Special visual cells, called cones, are respon-sible for our ability to see color. People with normal vision have three different types of cones, each responsibl...

517 wordsColor Blindness Color blindness (Daltonism; color vision deficiency) is a condition in which certain colors cannot be distinguished, and is most commonly due to an inherited condition. Although defective color vision may be acquired as a result of another eye disorder, the vast majority of color blind cases are hereditary present at birth. A form of color blindness is present to some degree in about 12 per cent of males, and about 0. 5 per cent of females may be affected. Problems in distinguish...

Infrared Light Blue Green
344 wordsThe Basics. Sunlight plays a much larger role in our sustenance than we may expect: all the food we eat and all the fossil fuel we use is a product of photosynthesis, which is the process that converts energy in sunlight to chemical forms of energy that can be used by biological systems. Photosynthesis is carried out by many different organisms, ranging from plants to bacteria (Figure 1). The best known form of photosynthesis is the one carried out by higher plants and algae, as well as by cyano...

Radio Wave Service Providers
1,531 wordsBandwidth is the capacity for carrying digital information. In the past few years, bandwidth has been increasing at roughly twice the rate of computing power. Data traffic has been doubling every 100 days (according to the U. S. Department of Commerce) and it is predicted that that Internet traffic will reach 16 million terabytes by 2003. Fiber is the transport medium of choice. It out performs copper, coaxial cable, and high frequency radio in data-carrying ability. As service needs increase, f...

Ultraviolet Rays Gamma Rays
343 wordsI went to Hawaii on vacation to get a tan, but I got something else instead. Ultraviolet rays are stronger, and hotter near the equator. When I got home I got x-rays. I was sent for treatment with gamma rays. Wow! What a vacation. It was so hot that I had to jump into a pool just to cool off. Ultraviolet rays have wavelengths between 10 nm and 430 nm. They also have a very high frequency of about 10, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 Hz. - 1, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 Hz. Photon energy emissions are al...

Sight, or vision, is a rapidly occurring process that involves interaction between the eye the nervous system and the brain. When someone looks at an object, what he / she is really seeing is the light that the object reflects, or gives off. This reflected light passes through the lens and falls on to the retina of the eye. Here, the light induces ne...

Solid State Lasers Beam Of Light
1,373 wordsA laser (LAY zum) is a device that produces a very narrow beam of light. This is called coherent light. It is formed from producing light at equal wavelengths in phase. The result is a beam of light that does not stray from it? s path. Conventional light bulbs produce incoherent light. This form of light diffuses immediately upon radiation from its source. The size of a laser beam varies greatly. Some lasers produce beams that are small enough to fit 200 beams in an area the size of a pinhead. T...

Radio has been a communications medium, a recreational device, and many other things to us. When British physicist James Clerk Maxwell published his theory of electromagnetic waves in 1873, he probably never could have envisioned the sorts of things that would come of such a principle. His theory mainly had to do with light...
