| high frequency. |
| Light comes in a variety of colors; at the low end of the frequency |
| scale we see red, higher up blue and, at the top, violet. At this point |

| the ultraviolet spectrum and some flowers have beautiful ultraviolet |
| markings that attract bees for pollination. Daylight contains a great |
| deal of ultraviolet light which is wasted on us - other than to tan our |
| skin. But all is not lost. Clever manufacturers put fluorescent dyes |
| into their washing powders which stick to our clothes and convert |
| ultraviolet into visible light, making our T-shirts look brighter as they |
| reflect more visible light than fell on them. You can see this effect most |
| easily in a disco when ultraviolet lights are shone on the dance floor |
