I seriously doubt any one will ever know, many men tried, many men failed there is no record of all the hobbyists or half drunken attempts so we can't know for sure. Interesting piece of information; no Thomas Edison did not invent the light bulb; he stole literally stole the progress from Sir Hiram Maxim and used his political ties in Paris to halt the Patton process of Maxim while Edison created the light bulb, Maxim did however create the world first modern machine gun from a Henry repeater rifle the machine gun is called the Maxim gun.

Is there a limit to number of different shadows you can make at once?

Yes, there is a limit to the number of different shadows you can create at once, primarily determined by the number of light sources and objects casting shadows. Each light source can produce distinct shadows based on the object's position, shape, and the angle of light. However, as the number of objects and light sources increases, shadows may overlap or merge, making it challenging to distinguish individual shadows. Additionally, practical constraints like space and lighting conditions can further limit the effective number of distinguishable shadows.


Is the number of photons in one j of red light 650 nm greater than equal to or less than the number of photons in one j of blue light?

The number of photons in one joule of light is inversely proportional to their wavelength. Since red light at 650 nm has a longer wavelength than blue light, which typically has a shorter wavelength (around 450 nm), there will be more photons in one joule of red light than in one joule of blue light. Therefore, the number of photons in one joule of red light is greater than the number of photons in one joule of blue light.


Energy is the speed of light squared times what number?

Not a "number." Energy is the speed of light squared times mass, so E = mc2.

How does a simple light microscope work?

A simple light microscope works by passing light through a specimen, which is then magnified by a series of lenses to create an enlarged image that can be viewed by the observer. The lenses in the microscope refract the light in such a way that the image appears larger and more detailed than the actual specimen.


Is a cinema screen a light source?

A cinema screen itself is not a light source; rather, it is a surface that reflects and diffuses light. The actual light source comes from projectors or other display technologies that emit light to create images on the screen. When the projected light hits the screen, it enables viewers to see the images being displayed. Thus, the screen plays a crucial role in the viewing experience but does not generate light on its own.

When two light waves arrive at the same place at the same time they create a what of light?

Two light waves arriving at the same place at the same time will normally create an interference pattern of light, if they are not perfectly in phase; if they are perfectly in phase they will just create a brighter light.


What is the actual purpose of a black light and how does it work?

A black light emits ultraviolet (UV) light, which is invisible to the human eye. When UV light hits certain substances, they absorb the light and re-emit it in a visible glow, creating the effect of fluorescence. This is why certain objects or materials appear to glow under a black light. The main purpose of a black light is to create this fluorescence effect, which is commonly used in entertainment, forensics, and counterfeit detection.
