What is the continuous spectrum of a star?
A continous spectrum hasn't discrete gaps between lines.
Why discontinuous spectrum is also called atomic or line spectrum?
Because the band is broken by colorless gaps
What is meant by a continuous spectrum?
You can use spectra to estimate the temperature of the star: astronomical thermometer
What is the difference between sunlight produced spectrum and hydrogen gas produced spectrum?
The spectrum of sunlight is continuous while for hydrogen is line spectrum (discontinuous)
How does an emission spectrum of a gas in a discharge tube differ from a white light spectrum?
It differs by that white light spectrum is continuous and consists of light of all wavelengths. Emission spectrum is not continuous. It consists of bright lines at specific wavelengths, with complete darkness between them.
What is the continuous spectrum of a star?
A continous spectrum hasn't discrete gaps between lines.
What is it called when all wavelengths are present there are no gaps from extreme red to extreme violet?
A continuous spectrum
Does the spectrum of light from a star have no gaps?
No, a spectrum of light with no gaps can not be achieved.
Explain the difference between the continuous spectrum of white light and the atomic emission spectrum of an element?
The difference between continuous spectrum and the atomic emission espectrum of an element is that in emission spectrum, only certain specific frequencies of light are emitted while in a continuous spectrum, a continuous range of colors are seen in the visible light.
What spectrum contains only specific wavelengths?
Continuous Spectrum
Is the continuous spectrum really continuous Or just too close to distinguish?
The spectrum produced by something that's heated, like the sun or an incandescent light, is continuous.
A function whose graph has no gaps or breaks?
continuous
What type of spectrum can be produced by a solid liquid or a gas?
Continuous spectrum.
What type of spectrum can be produced by solid liquid or gas?
Continuous spectrum.
Where can you commonly find the continuous spectra?
A continuous spectrum is seen in a rainbow.
Does the continuous spectrum consist of the Lyman?
No
Which type of spectrum can be produced by solid liquid or gas?
The spectrum produced by solid is continuous spectrum. Continuous spectrum is formed by all, solid liquid and gases if the pressure is high. In case of low pressure, gases produce line spectrum.
