Demo Number	260
Location	Shelf 45
Description	Different colors of LED lights of similar intensity are shone on a phosphorescent sheet and the amount of glow is compared.

Tips	Shorter wavelength lights are much more effective at illuminating the sheet than long-wavelength lights. Below a certain threshold, the light cannot make the sheet glow at all no matter how long it shines, analogous to the photoelectric effect.
