Question
unit 7 \physical interaction\ test
the brightness of light is determined by _____.
intensity of light waves.
wave speed
wavelength
air temperature
Brief Explanations
The brightness of light is related to the amount of energy it carries per unit area per unit time, which is the intensity of light - waves. Wave speed is a constant in a given medium for light in vacuum or air (approx. $c = 3\times10^{8}m/s$), wavelength determines the color of light, and air - temperature has no direct relation to light brightness.
