Today I put this question on a Waves test.
4. In color theory red light (4.8 x 1014 HZ) and green light (5.7 x> b. Is the student justified in his hypothesis?
1014 Hz) combine to yield yellow. A student proposed that this is an
example of the beats phenomenon.
a. What would be the beat frequency
of these colors? Would this be an observable frequency?
The average of these two frequencies is in the yellow. The difference
is IR, I think.
One student said that beats only happens with sound. I know better
than that.
