... Here’s a clever analogy: Sound waves make the next tuning fork oscillate if the tines oscillate at that frequency . The frequency of visible light is more than 1014 Hz. Electrons can vibrate at that frequency. Remember that this is just a model. In the ultraviolet range glass electrons resonant with ...
