Light is electromagnetic radiation of a wavelength that is visible to the human eye (in a range from about 380 or 400 nanometres to about 760 or 780 nm). In physics, the term light sometimes refers to electromagnetic radiation of any wavelength, whether visible or not.

Five primary properties of light are intensity, frequency or wavelength, polarization, phase and orbital angular momentum.

Light, which exists in tiny "packets" called photons, exhibits properties of both waves and particles. This property is referred to as the wave–particle duality. The study of light, known as optics, is an important research area in modern physics.

How do I fit light shade with a hole that is bigger than light fitting?
Q. I bought a light shade for a ceiling light and when I tried to put it up - the hole in the middle of the shade was much bigger than the light fitting itself. The only way I could get it to stay up was to have the part with the hole balancing almost halfway down bulb. Surely that's not right? If I had a thin energy saving bulb it would just fall off, it's only because I have a normal bulb just now that it stays up. Can anyone help?

A. You need a shade reducing ring. eg. You should also be able to get them at market stalls/ high street lighting shops.

What will happen if put a light bulb in a light with the incorrect wattage?
Q. My light went out in my bathroom so I went and bought some 100 watt light bulbs, but when I got home I noticed the light said 75 watts was the max...Will my bathroom catch on fire? So far all I've put is one of the 100 watt light bulbs in but I was wondering will it be ok to put the second one in...

A. Go purchase 75 Watt or lower. The 100's will give off more heat and be brighter, but may cause damage if they are covered or surrounded by material that can handle the heat coming off of 75 watt bulbs but not a 100 watt bulbs. I would watch out for this more. High heat is a bad thing and fire hazard, and an insurance company can't go after the light manufacturer if you put in the wrong bulbs. Always better safe than sorry.

Light is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength that is visible to the eye (visible light) or, in a technical or scientific context, the word is sometimes used to mean electromagnetic radiation of all wavelengths. The elementary particle that defines light is the photon.

The sensory perception of light plays a central role in Spirituality, and the presence of light as opposed to its absence (darkness) is a common Western metaphor of good and evil, knowledge and ignorance, and similar concepts.

  • And God said: "Let there be light," and there was light.
  • God is the light of the heavens and the earth. The similitude of His light is as a niche wherein is a lamp. The lamp is in a glass.The glass is as it were a shining star. (This lamp is) kindled from a blessed tree, an olive neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself) though no fire touched it. Light upon light, God guideth unto His light whome he will. And God speaketh to mankind in allegories, for God is knower of all things.
