Carpentry is another profession learned through apprenticeship. An apprenticeship is a system of training a new generation of practitioners of a trade or profession with on-the-job training and often some accompanying study (classroom work and reading). Apprenticeship also enables practitioners to gain a license to practice in a regulated profession.
A black light is a source of electromagnetic radiation that emits near-ultraviolet light, usually in the 350-375 nanometer wavelength range. This range is just slightly below the 400nm that human eyes can detect. When this light is reflected off certain materials, it looses energy and its wavelength expands to over 400nm. The reflected light is then visible to human eyes, and the illuminated objects appear to glow.
However, any material containing phosphors in the surrounding environment will react to the UV light, and reflect back visible light. In addition to their entertainment value, black lights have been put to use in mechanical engineering and repair, criminal investigation, forgery detection, and many other fields.
