Exactly what do vibrating electrons emit?

Classical they will emit electromagnetic waves (light and radio waves). Quantum effects might limit this since if the electrons are in the ground state (or all lower states are occupied) they can not emit any photons (quanta of electromagnetic waves).


What are all bodies emit called?

All objects and living things emit infrared radiation unless the object is not a black hole as well unless its temperature is not at the Absolute Zero ( I would call it an "infrared black hole") - such an object can only absorb infrared radiation.


What do all sources of infared radiation have in common?

All sources of infrared radiation emit electromagnetic waves with wavelengths longer than visible light but shorter than microwaves. This radiation is characterized by its ability to generate heat and be detected by infrared sensors.


Which types of electromagnetic radiation do all stars emit?

Optical light


do all objects with a temperature above absolute zero emit radiation?

Yes, all objects with a temperature above absolute zero emit radiation. This radiation is in the form of electromagnetic waves, with the intensity and wavelength dependent on the object's temperature.


What electromagnetic waves are produced by stars and galaxies?

Stars and galaxies emit a broad range of electromagnetic waves including visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and radio waves. The specific wavelengths and intensities of these emissions depend on the temperature, composition, and activity of the celestial object.


What kind of electromagnetic radiation do pulsars emit?

Pulsars emit electromagnetic radiation across a wide range of wavelengths, from radio waves to X-rays and even gamma rays. The most prominent emission is usually in the form of radio waves, which is why pulsars are often observed using radio telescopes.


Heat waves traveling at the speed of light are called?

Heat waves traveling at the speed of light are called RADIATION! :)


What kind of electromagnetic radiation do all warm bodies emit?

All warm bodies emit thermal radiation, which is a type of electromagnetic radiation that can be felt as heat. This radiation is a result of the movement of atoms and molecules within the body, and its intensity and wavelength depend on the temperature of the body.


Why do all objects emit?

All objects emit thermal radiation because they have a temperature above absolute zero. This thermal radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation that includes visible light, infrared, and ultraviolet rays. The intensity and wavelengths of the radiation emitted depend on the temperature of the object.


Does the sun emit wave radio waves?

Yes, the sun does emit radio waves as part of its electromagnetic radiation. These radio waves are a form of energy emitted by the sun, along with visible light and other forms of radiation. Radio telescopes can be used to capture and study these radio waves emitted by the sun.


Does radio waves always travel the speed of light?

Radio waves, like light, is a form of electromagnetic radiation. Other types of electromagnetic radiation include X-rays, infrared radiation, and gamma rays. All electromagnetic radiation travel at the speed of light.
