physical process in which the amount of absorbed light depends on concentration of the substance C, the thickness of the liquid layer d and a specific absorption coefficient α at a given wavelength λ. The phenomenon of light transmission through a sample can be described by the fraction of light at a specific wavelength λ that passes through the sample (Fig 3.7). If Io is the intensity of the incident light and I1 be the intensity of the transmitted light then the transmittance T can be expressed
emission of light and other radiation by matter. Dependence of this process related to the wavelength of the radiation. Spectrometers are used to measure the properties of light over a specific portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Fig 1: Dispertion of the visiable light 2. Theory Grating Spectrometer: In a spectrometer if diffract light into specific wavelengths then uses grating. In this figure (2) we can see that light passes through the Input slit.
forth movement). The properties of waves are called amplitude, wavelength, and frequency. The amplitude is the measure of the distance of the wave from its normal rest position. The distance between any point on a wave and the same point on the next wave is called the wavelength. The number of waves produced in one second is called its frequency. The history of radio waves: Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths in the electromagnetic radiation, but how and who created and
Microwaves is an electromagnetic radiation. Its wavelength is in the ranging of 30 meter to 30 millimeter and its frequency is range from 30MHz to 30GHz. An electromagnetic spectrum (EM spectrum) is means by the broad range of a wavelengths. The electromagnetic spectrum is specified into seven regions which started from the lowest wavelength, highest frequency and energy. Then, microwaves located between the radio waves and infrared which also means that the microwaves is overlap with the highest
Refraction: Refraction occurs when light enters a more or less optically dense medium, which therefore has a different refractive index (measure of the velocity light can travel at in the medium compared to in a vacuum in which it can travel at 2.9 x 108ms-1). This causes the light’s speed to increase or decrease, which results in the rays bending towards or away from the normal, so the position of the image formed is dependent on the refractive indices of the two media. For refraction to occur
The quality of transmission of light decreases the thicker the lens, as well as the length if the wavelength. Some of the light the refracts of the lens causing the produced image to be faint. The larger the objective lens the more expensive they are, and for magnification you need a large lens, so is it cheaper to use a reflector telescope. lenses are
light energy for determining the concentration of substances in a solution. (Mark Garcia 2014). The instrument used is called spectrophotometer to distinguish different compounds since they absorb light at different wavelength. Some have wide range of wavelength and the shorter the wavelength the higher the energy. For one to know the absorbed light one has to put a cuvette into a sample holder with a solution and record the amount of light transmitted and absorbed through the solution. A concentration
01. Introduction to sound Waves Sound is a progression of longitudinal or pressure waves that travel through air or different materials. Sound does not go in a vacuum. Like any waveform, sound has the qualities of wavelength, recurrence, plentifulness and pace or speed. Sound waves are made by the vibration of some item, similar to the cone in a radio amplifier. The waves are distinguished when they cause a locator to vibrate. Questions you may have include: 1. What is a depiction of sound
the focal point, this is the cause of lens dispersion, where the colours in the light rays travel at different speeds when going through a lens, this causes there to be multiple focal points ; The blue focal point is shorter than the red, as its wavelength is shorter, you’ll get multiple image distances, this will create multiple images, one for each colour of the incidence beam. These different rays will then overlap to produce an image with blurry coloured edges. So sometimes when you’re viewing
photon. The dispersion relation of the waves represent the level of spreading on the metal which mostly depend upon the nature of waves striking, its frequency and wave number. Dispersion speed are different in different wavelength of waves, so speed of wave is function of its wavelength. The dispersion relation of a wave determined by the angular frequency and its wavenumber like as, w(k)=v(k).k in which w(k) is angular frequency and k is wave number.

Introduction Every chemical substances can absorbs, transmits and reflects certain amount of light call as electromagnetic radiation over a certain range of wavelength. Spectrophotometry is a method to measure how much a chemical compound absorbs light by measuring the intensity of the light beam passes through the sample solution. Spectrophotometry is widely used in many quantitative analysis in various areas such as in biology, chemistry, physics related fields. For example, in chemistry, this
their purpose? There are many types of infrared wavelengths with different frequencies and lengths, which calls for different types of infrared cameras to be made in order to pick up any rage of wavelength for different purposes. In the electromagnetic spectrum there are radio waves with long wavelengths and there are gamma rays with short wavelengths. In the middle of them there is a area of visible light. Surrounding that area is where infrared wavelengths come into play, they have frequencies of 430

These properties must be considered in light color interiors. Visible radiation has a shorter wavelength than infrared. Therefore, its quants have higher energy. However, the skin is

Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy is defined as the measurement of the attenuation of a beam of light after it pass through the sample or after reflection from a sample.Single wavelength or over an extended range can be the absorption measurement of UV spectroscopy . The ultraviolet region falls in the range between 190-380 nm, the visible region fall between 380-750 nm.(1) Principle Origin of UV-visible spectra When the matter interacts with radiation ,various process such as absorbance, fluorescence/phosphorescence
Theoretical Background Fluorescence Fluorescence is the ability of many natural and synthetic structures, known as fluorophores, to emit light when excited with light at specific wavelength. Fluorescence phenomena occur when an incident light photon interacts with an electron of a fluorophore. The incident light photon may transfer its energy to the electron of the fluorophore and hence the electron moves to a higher energy state. When the electron returns to its ground state, it loses energy
polychromatic beam of radiation spread over a few wavelengths. 2. Chemical deviation: - This deviation occurs due to presence of more than one absorbing species in the sample. The measured absorbance in such events is actually the sum of the absorbances of the individual species each having its own absorptivity. 3. Instrumental deviation: - This deviation arises depending upon the bandwidth of the instrument. The bandwidth of the instrument depends upon the wavelength resolving capacity of the system consisting
INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY: Definition: It is defined as the spectroscopy that is concerned with the infrared region of electromagnetic energy spectrum. As the name suggests, this type of spectroscopy is used to study the interaction of light of low wavelength with matter. IR spectroscopy deals with the vibrational energy of atoms, and thus determines the functional groups. Theory: An infrared spectrum is obtained when infrared light passes through the given sample, and finds out the amount of incident
