What is LIGHT Energy? Light energy is now a popular subject of scientific research and study. The energy we call light is actually a unique form of energy that can be classified into three basic forms. These forms are electromagnetic radiation, optical radiation, and sound waves. In this article, we will discuss the first two forms of light and how they can be transformed into other forms such as ultraviolet light, x-rays, gamma rays, or infrared light.
What is LIGHT Energy? Light energy is a type of non-energetic energetic vibration which has the power to create certain forms of light for our eyes to perceive. Basically, light energy can be classified into visible, invisible, and soft-sense electromagnetic radiation. In addition to these three forms of electromagnetic energy, there exists a unique form of energy known as “photon energy” that cannot be seen with the human eye.
Photons are tiny particles of energy and have a definite momentum that constantly spins. Just like with radio waves, the number of photons emitted from an atomic atom depends on how much energy (energy per unit of mass) is present in the atom. One of the most common types of light energy is called visible light, or the light we can see with our eyes. All other forms of energy are categorized according to how fast they attain a state of zero potential.
How Do We perceive Things using Our Eyes? Through Our Eyes – If you have ever seen a flower, or any other living being for that matter, you have noticed that the colors they emit appear in different hues depending on where their flowers are located. This is because of the way the light travels around us, and in varying amounts in all around us. For example, a light orange flower gives off a red halo around it, while a light blue flower gives off a faint purple color around it.
The human eye itself is able to detect all wavelengths of light energy. The range of wavelengths Human eyes are capable of detecting is generally classified into yellow, green, and red. The yellow color is the widest, as well as the most frequently over-expired for, while the other two colors provide more color awareness without having to use your physical sense to determine what they are. The human eye is only capable of detecting a wavelength of light energy that is close to its own wavelength.
The Human Emotion: How Does the Human Eye perceives Light Energy? – Well the human eye has a very limited ability to perceive wavelength frequencies directly. Thus, when talking about light energy, we need to talk about visible light. All other forms of electromagnetic radiation such as x-rays, gamma rays, infrared light, or microwaves cannot pass through the cornea and only the retina can see them. In order to move from the retina to the lens, light energy must travel through the lens. Thus, light energy is only a very small percentage of the electromagnetic spectrum that the human eye is actually capable of perceiving.
The Human Emotion: Humans only perceive five different wavelengths of light, which are our primary wavelength’s and the other four primary wavelengths that the sun emits. If you think about it, only the sun is emitting radiation that has wavelengths that are perceptible by humans. So if you take a picture with a digital camera and take it outside, you’ll notice how sunlight appears to bend and wave around various objects when seen from a specific direction. If you’re standing in front of a tree and take a picture of it from above, you’ll see how the tree appears to change depending on where you are looking and the direction you look. This is all caused by the fact that the sun emits radiation in a limited number of wavelengths and humans are only capable of detecting those that fall within their five primary human-visible wavelengths.
The Sun and Electromagnetism: The sun emits a huge amount of electromagnetic radiation in the visible light spectrum. The sun’s light energy is divided into its various wavelengths, which are all vibrating or changing according to the earth’s magnetic field. If the earth’s magnetic field lines up with the rays of the sun, we receive visible light. If the rays strike an obstacle in our atmosphere or enter our atmosphere through an opening, we receive microwave radiation. There are many theories as to how these waves combine and create the colors that we observe in our environment but most studies have concluded that they originate within the corona, a highly magnetic region surrounding the sun where the energy becomes trapped due to the orientation of the earth’s magnetic field.
