Where does infrared heat come from?
Infrared lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared waves that are near to visible light do not generate heat and are used in TV remote controls. Infrared waves that are far from the visible end of the light spectrum are thermal and generate heat. The infrared heat from the sun, a lamp or a radiator is a type of far infrared radiation.
What Differences in thermal energy can be detected with?
infrared imagery
Differences in thermal energy can be detected with?
infrared imagery
Is thermal energy a type of energy?
Yes. Infrared light heats with the energy its quantum delivers. That is thermal.
What are sources of infrared waves?
Any source of heat/thermal radiation.
What is the type of remote sensing imagery best suited to use at night?
Thermal infrared.

Are there dangers in using an far infrared sauna?
Not really, infrared saunas are safe. The same infrared heaters are used on baby incubators to keep them warm.
How is thermal energy observed?
An infrared detector
Is night vision and infrared vision the same?
No, night vision is the ability to see in low light condition and infrared vision is the capability of biological or artificial systems to detect infrared radiation. The terms thermal vision and thermal imaging, are also commonly used in this context since infrared emissions from a body are directly related to their temperature: hotter objects emit more energy in the infrared spectrum than colder ones.
Radiation that carries thermal energy is called what?
Infrared radiation carries thermal energy
The wavelengths of thermal infrared emitted by the Earth are?
The Earth emits thermal radiation of a much lower intensity in the infrared rather than visible region . The wavelength of infrared rays is around 10^-6 meter.
Differences in thermal energy can be detected with?
infrared imagery
Where does the heat come from in a volcano?
Infrared lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared waves that are near to visible light do not generate heat and are used in TV remote controls. Infrared waves that are far from the visible end of the light spectrum are thermal and generate heat. The infrared heat from the sun, a lamp or a radiator is a type of far infrared radiation.
Where can one buy an infrared thermal camera?
Many companies sell infrared thermal cameras. Amazon, Optics Planet, Grainger, Testers and Tools, and Omega Engineering are just a few online sources for thermal cameras.
Is it possible to gain thermal vision?
Not physically (or physiologically), but there are a number of infrared or thermal scopes manufactured that can help you see in the thermal ranges.
