Q

It is a ray having a wavelength of 30 to 40 millimicrons. These rays give up energy in the form of visible light that gives “fluorescent effect” to the object. It can be use in photographing fingerprints on multi – colored backgrounds, in documents that are altered chemically as well as in the detection of secret writings.

Q

Isaac Newton in 1666, state that the light which man sees as white is actually a mixture of all colors of the spectrum. He discovered this, when a beam of light passed through a glass prism and produces the rainbow array of hues of the visible spectrum. With this, we can say that white light means presence of all colors of light, and black means absence of all of colors light.

Sensitized paper serves as the permanent place for the photographic image after chemical development. It is the material or the paper used for producing positive print or photographs.

A

photograpic paper

68
Q

is also coated with light sensitive emulsion, not in a transparent material but in something opaque such as paper.

A

photographic paper

69
Q

These photographic papers are widely used for projection printing or enlarging process, wherein the image in the negative are projected or enlarge with the aid of an “enlarger”

t is considered as the best photographic paper for police investigative work.

A

silver bromide emulsion

70
Q

Its sensitivity to light is low and commonly used in contact printing, wherein a photographic image from the negative is transferred to the photographic paper through a direct contact with each other (negative and photographic paper) under a certain amount of light

A

Silver Chloride Solution

71
Q

– the photographic paper that contains both silver chloride and bromide is———— . With this, the sensitivity of this paper to light could either be slow or fast. Meaning, it has a slow emulsion for contact printing, and a fast emulsion provided for projection printing.

A

Silver Chlorobromide Papers

72
Q

this prevent the paper from being scratched.

A

Protective Coating –

73
Q

this is the part of the paper that does the real work. It contains the silver chlorides or bromides suspended in gelatin. These react with light to create a latent image, which cannot be seen until the development process has taken place. Paper is less sensitive than film, it usually required several or tens of seconds of light exposure to create an image.

A

Emulsion –

74
Q

this layer stops the emulsion from soaking into the fibers of the paper. This makes the processing, washing and drying quicker and prevents the paper from getting soggy and falling apart.

exposure of film to cause an image after development is not just a matter of how bright the light on the film, but as well as how long it is allowed to fall on the film

A

The Shutter –

77
Q

It is defined as a contraption or device that used to black the path of light passing through the lens and exposing the sensitized material in a pre – determined interval of time.

A

Shutter?

78
Q

a shutter that is located in the lens (usually between the elements of the lens). It is made up of metal leaves and its action from the center toward the side, then close back to the center

A
