Are all the lengths of a regular pentagon the same?
Yes
What is a triangle with all angles the same size and all sides the same lengths?
An equilateral triangle.
Do all triangles with same side lengths have the same area?
Only if they are congruent triangles
What is a polygon with all sides the same lengths and all angles the same measure with three sides?
An equilateral triangle
Are all rectangles the same?
no they can be different lengths or sizes
Is speed of light is the same for all the wave lengths?
yes
What can you say about the speed of different colors in air?
You can that they're all identical.
Why do different colors absorb different amounts of heat energy?
when a substance appears of a particular color, it is actually absorbing all the wave lengths of the light spectrum falling on it and reflecting only one wave length peculiar to that color. So, different colors absorb different wave lengths and hence, different amounts of heat energy.
Do green plants reflect all colors of the spectrum?
No. Actually they ABSORB all colors of the visible spectrum except green and REFLECT green light.
What causes the different colors in the spectrum?
Visible light contains all of the colors with in the spectrum. The only way we see color is the bending and refraction of the visible light sending certain wave lengths back, which our brain interprets as different colors.
How does color work?
Humans perceive different wave lengths of light as different colors. Objects are struck by all the colors.If all the colors are reflected off the object, it is perceived as a white object.If all the light gets absorbed by the object and none is reflected, Then the object is perceived as black.If the object is blue, only the blue light will be reflected and all other wave lengths will be absorbed by the object. The eye would then perceive the object as blue.That is why black clothing can sometimes be hot to wear.
Why are the colors in a rainbow in a surtain order?
Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, Green, Purple, and you can add pink if you want. The reason they go in order is because not every rainbow you see cant be a different color they are just all the same. The wave lengths effect the bending of the light.
What are examples of light wave?
All of the colors in the rainbow.
Is speed related to the color of a light wave?
No. All colors of light travel at the same speed in vacuum. Different colors represent light waves with different wavelengths (frequencies).
What kind of electromagnetic radiation do pulsars emit?
All electromagnetic wave lengths (light)
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of a light wave projected by the laser?
Colors are determined by the wavelengths but all wavelengths travel at the same speed. So no, colors do not affect the velocity of light.
Light waves are example of what wave?
All of the colors in the rainbow.
