Correct option is A
The
visible radiation (or visible light) spectrum lies in the range of approximately
0.38 to 0.78 microns (µm), which falls within the broader option
0.15 to 4.0 µm.
Though 0.15 µm includes part of ultraviolet and 4.0 µm enters into the infrared range, this option
encompasses the visible band, making it the
closest correct choice.
Explanation:
0.15 to 4.0 µ –
Correct answer. Encloses the
visible range (0.38–0.78 µm) along with nearby bands.
(b) 4.0 to 6.5 µ – Lies entirely in the
infrared region, not visible light.
(c) 6.5 to 9.5 µ – Also part of
thermal infrared, used in remote sensing.
(d) 9.5 to 14.5 µ – Further into the
infrared spectrum, beyond visible light.
