• Electric Lighting.

  successful arc lamp in 1878. Tungsten filaments were substituted for carbon filaments in incandescent lamps in 1907, and gas-filled incandescent lamps were developedin 1913. The fluorescent lamp was introduced in 1938. See also Lamp. For most of the 20th century the incandescent light bulb was widely used for lighting in homes. More energy-efficient and longer-lasting fluorescent lamps were adoptedfor industrial and office use. In 1979 a compact fluorescent bulb that screwed into ordinary lig...

• Light - astronomy.

  Each different frequency or wavelength of visible light causes our eye to see a slightly different color. The longest wavelength we can see is deep red at about 700 nm.The shortest wavelength humans can detect is deep blue or violet at about 400 nm. Most light sources do not radiate monochromatic light. What we call white light,such as light from the Sun, is a mixture of all the colors in the visible spectrum, with some represented more strongly than others. Human eyes respond best to greenlight...

• 1902 : Nuées incandescentes aux Caraïbes Mont Pelée

  A droite : La ville de Saint­ Pierre au pied du mont Pelée. L 'éruption de 1902 mit fin à une phase d'activité de ce remarqua­ ble type de volcan. Ci-dessous: D'impressionnants nuages de vapeur surchauffée et de roches fondues fusèrent d'un orifice situé sur le flanc du mont Pelée, lors de l'éruption de 1902, parce que le cratère était bouché. Un nuage incandescent tomba sur la ville et le port, et fit plus de trente mille victimes. Tout fut d...

• Air - chemistry.

  lighting systems, fertilizers, and semiconductors (substances used to make the chips in computers, calculators, televisions, microwave ovens, and many other electronicdevices). A Oxygen More than half of the oxygen produced in the United States is used by the steel industry, which injects the gas into basic oxygen furnaces to heat and produce steel(see Iron and Steel Manufacture: Basic Oxygen Process ). Metalworkers also combine oxygen with acetylene to produce high-temperature torch flames th...

• La couleur donne son apparence aux choses et elle exprime la vie.

  Des causes physiques extrêmement variées peuvent être à l'origine de la couleur d'un objet donné. Si, éclairé par un faisceau complexe, cet objet absorbe toutes les longueurs d'onde sauf une, il sera vu comme étant de la couleur associée à cette longueur d'onde. Les colorants habituels absorbent très fortement, si bien qu'ils imposent leur couleur même quand ils sont très dilués. Cet objet peut aussi absorber certaines longueurs d'onde, éventuellement hors du domaine du visible, et émettre à un...

• Light I INTRODUCTION Light, form of energy visible to the human eye that is radiated by moving charged particles.

  simulates the action of a moving charge upon the electric field. It creates a wave that travels along the rope in a direction that is perpendicular to the initial up anddown movement. Because electromagnetic waves are transverse—that is, the vibration that creates them is perpendicular to the direction in which they travel, they are similar to waveson a rope or waves traveling on the surface of water. Unlike these waves, however, which require a rope or water, light does not need a medium, or su...
