QUÉ SIGNIFICA LIGHT EN INGLÉS

Ligero

La luz es energía radiante, por lo general se refiere a la radiación electromagnética que es visible para el ojo humano, y es responsable del sentido de la vista. La luz visible se define generalmente como que tiene una longitud de onda en el rango de 400 nanómetros, o 400 × 10-9 m, a 700 nanómetros - entre el infrarrojo, con longitudes de onda más largas y el ultravioleta, con longitudes de onda más cortas. Estos números no representan los límites absolutos de la visión humana, sino el rango aproximado dentro del cual la mayoría de la gente puede ver razonablemente bien en la mayoría de las circunstancias. Varias fuentes definen la luz visible tan estrechamente como 420 a 680 a tan ampliamente como 380 a 800 nm. Bajo condiciones de laboratorio ideales, la gente puede ver el infrarrojo hasta por lo menos 1050 nanómetro, los niños y los adultos jóvenes ultravioleta abajo a cerca de 310 a 313 nanómetro. Las propiedades primarias de la luz visible son la intensidad, la dirección de propagación, la frecuencia o el espectro de longitud de onda, y la polarización, mientras que su velocidad en el vacío, 299.792.458 metros por segundo, es una de las constantes fundamentales de la naturaleza. La luz visible, como con todos los tipos de radiación electromagnética, se encuentra experimentalmente para moverse siempre a esta velocidad en vacío.

Citas y frases célebres con la palabra light.
1
Yehuda Amichai
I think the end is endless. It's either a big black hole or a big white light or both together. But it's totally meaningless, because even if someone would explain it, I wouldn't understand it.
2
Morena Baccarin
I've love to do more movies. Just because I'm interested in the medium very much. I've done a lot of theatre at this point, and I've done a lot of TV. I've done a few independent films, but a lot of them have not seen the light of day. It'd be really nice to be in a film that gets out there.
3
John Badham
In this movie they took them up in space. They're floating around and doing zero gravity stuff. Well, they had to do it all on wires. All the wires had to be painted black against this black background. If you didn't light it properly you could see the wires. Drove them crazy!
4
Nick Bantock
Growing up in England, people told you why you couldn't do things. Suddenly, I had a publisher banging on my door, and was given the creative green light to simply make.
5
Charles Barkley

6
Stan Brakhage

8
Conrad Burns
I come from Montana, and in eastern Montana we have a lot of dirt between light bulbs. It is expensive trying to bring the new technologies to smaller schools to upgrade their technologies to take advantage of distance learning.
9
Smedley Butler
I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.
10
Nayvadius Cash
The hardest part of fame and success is adapting to the people around you that's changing. It changes the way people look at you from how they used to look at you. They listen to you on the radio, they look at you on TV and when people speak on you in a good light, you have a couple people who hold grudges.
