- What are the characteristics of the energy that we see as visible light? Provide an example illustrating how these characteristics are expressed when someone sees a rainbow. What types of things (situations and/or objects) can interfere with these characteristics? Please include references.arrow_forwardA student is sitting outside on a sunny day looking at a book with a blue cover. She is explaining to her friend how she can see the book cover as blue. She said: "I can see the book cover as blue because light from the sun travels in straight lines to the book. The white light from the sun contains red, green, and blue light. When it strikes the book cover, the blue light is reflected at equal angles, while the rest of the colors are absorbed in the book cover. The reflected blue light then enters my eye, and I see the book cover as blue." Evaluate her explanation to determine whether it is good or poor, by choosing one of the following responses: O It is problematic because the idea that "the white light from the sun contains red, green, and blue," is not correct. It is problematic because the idea that "mostly the blue light energies are reflected at equal angles," is not correct. It is good because all the ideas are correct scientific ideas, and none of the important ideas are…arrow_forwardThe dispersion curve of glass is the curve that describes how the index of refraction of glass changes as a function of the wavelength.
