In the model of an atom, there is a nucleus surrounded by electrons. Each set of electrons is in a different orbital, and the number of orbitals depends on the atom itself. These orbitals all have different energy levels: the further the electron is from the nucleus, the higher it's energy. For electrons to move from one orbital to a higher one, it requires external energy, while for it to move down to a lower energy level, it must give off energy. The energy that it gives off is in the form of a proton, which we see as light.
Electromagnetic radiation consists of seven kinds, depending on the frequency and length of their waves. These are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.
Infrared radiation is emitted by the warmed surface of the earth. It is captured by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere which warm. The warmed gases then re-radiate this heat in all directions, including back down to the surface of the earth. Because the amount of greenhouse gas is increasing, we thus have global warming. This is the connection.
Electrons are not particles of EM radiation. Photons are.
Practically nothing.
the energy that makes the electromagnetic spectrum is electromagnetic radiation
The amount of radiation changes across the spectrum.
no they are not. NASA suggests that the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation does not include cosmic rays.
beyatch,
Yes
the energy that makes the electromagnetic spectrum is electromagnetic radiation
the electromagnetic spectrum
No, The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all possible frequencies of electromagnetic radiation.[1] The "electromagnetic spectrum" of an object is the characteristic distribution of electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by that particular object.

electromagnetic radiation includes all types of the electromagnetic spectrum
When electromagnetic radiation is arranged to wavelength and frequency it forms the electromagnetic spectrum.
the electromagnetic spectrum. ============================
All forms of radiation, even hard nuclear radiation, is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
The visible spectrum is one band within the full range of electromagnetic radiation.
