  2. Cuvette - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuvette

    The cuvette can be made of any material that is transparent in the range of wavelengths used in the test. The smallest cuvettes can hold 70 microliters, while the largest can hold 2.5 milliliters or more. The width determines the length of the light path through the sample, which affects the calculation of the absorbance value.

  3. Luminous intensity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_intensity

    One of the best-known of these standards was the English standard: candlepower. One candlepower was the light produced by a pure spermaceti candle weighing one sixth of a pound and burning at a rate of 120 grains per hour. Germany, Austria, and Scandinavia used the Hefnerkerze, a unit based on the output of a Hefner lamp. [4]

  5. Lumen (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumen_(unit)

    A full sphere has a solid angle of 4π steradians (≈ 12.56637 sr), so an isotropic light source (that uniformly radiates in all directions) with a luminous intensity of one candela has a total luminous flux of 1 cd × 4π sr = 4π cd⋅sr = 4π lm ≈ 12.57 lm. [3] One lux is one lumen per square metre.

    Liter of Light Bangladesh was started by Shanjidul Alam Seban Shaan under Lights Foundation in 2015 in Chittagong. [14] [15] They made a local version of the bottle light called 'Botol Bati', which costs around $2–2.50 USD and lasts for 4–5 years. They aim to spread awareness of bottle lights to remote areas by training local school students.

  7. Speed of light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_Light

    A light-year is the distance light travels in one Julian year, around 9461 billion kilometres, 5879 billion miles, or 0.3066 parsecs. In round figures, a light year is nearly 10 trillion kilometres or nearly 6 trillion miles. Proxima Centauri, the closest star to Earth after the Sun, is around 4.2 light-years away. [89]

  9. Biological effects of high-energy visible light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_effects_of_high...

    Blue light, a type of high-energy light, is part of the visible light spectrum. High-energy visible light (HEV light) is short-wave light in the violet/blue band from 400 to 450 nm in the visible spectrum, which has a number of purported negative biological effects, namely on circadian rhythm and retinal health (blue-light hazard), which can lead to age-related macular degeneration.
