Answer to Problem 19TE
The reason that the visible radiation couldn’t cause cell damage while as ultraviolet can is that visible radiation posses less energy than that of ultraviolet.
Explanation of Solution
The energy is related directly to the
Ultraviolet waves have smaller wavelengths than that of visible lights. And hence possess more energy than that of visible light waves. When the ultraviolet falls on the skin, it could result in a
Conclusion:
Therefore, the reason that the visible radiation couldn’t cause cell damage while as ultraviolet can is that visible radiation posses less energy than that of ultraviolet.
