How the light signal is transmitted through the fiber?

1 Answer

Answer :

Ans. There are three major parts:
1. Transmitter: it converts electrical signal into light signals
2. Optical fiber: it carries the signal from one place to another
3. Receiver: it converts light signal into electrical signal
Pulse of light represented by “1” and absence of light is represented by “0”. Any information can be represented by the pattern of 1’s and 0’s.

Description : Why would it be advantages to use blue light with compound microscope?

Last Answer : Ans. The limit, to which a microscope can be used to resolve details, depends upon the width of the objective. A wider objective and use of blue light (short wavelength) produces less diffraction and allows more details to be viewed.
