What does the sun have to do with the electromagnetic spectrum?

Hydrogen nuclei undergo fusion within the Sun and this reaction releases energy as 0.3% of the hydrogen's mass is converted into energy. This energy spans several bands of the electromagnetic spectrum, most of it is in the UV-Vis portion. For more information look up blackbody radiation.

∙ 12y agoThe sun is our main source of light, and light is made up of 7 different colours:
Red,
Orange,
Yellow,
Green,
Blue,
Indigo,
Violet.
Even though you cant see these colours all the time, they're still there. These lights also have an order, and order of low and high frequency/energy. The electromagnetic spectrum also has this order but with types of radiation instead of light. Scientists have matched the colour spectrum with the electromagnetic spectrum so that it may be easier to remember.
The electromagnetic spectrum is:
Radio wave,
Micro-wave,
Infrared heat,
Visible,
Ultra-violet radiation,
X-rays,
Gamma radiation.

What is a Electromagnetic spectrum?
The combination of different colours due to the dispersion of sun light is called spectrum. This type of spectrum is called continues or line spectrum.
What does a electromagnetic spectrum contain of?
what does an electromagnetic spectrum consist of
What energy does the electromagnetic spectrum make?
the energy that makes the electromagnetic spectrum is electromagnetic radiation
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum contains the majority of the suns rays?
IR, visible, UV. Our sun's radiation peaks in the yellow portion of the spectrum.
What does the electromagnetic spectrum have?
Electromagnetic spectrum have different electromagnetic waves classified orderly according to their wavelength or frequency.
What spectrum does the sun emit?
The Sun emits radiation across almost the entire electromagnetic spectrum.
Why wouldn't you plot soundwaves in the electromagnetic spectrum?
The electromagnetic spctrum has nothing to do with sound; it's about the sun's energy.
What is ultrviolet?
Ultraviolet is a part of electromagnetic spectrum. It is a radiation released from the sun.
Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum do you feel as heat from the sun?
infrared waves
Where on the electromagnetic spectrum is our sun's energy the highest in concentration?
umm yess
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum has the most energy?
The waves with higher frequencies have more energy and the gamma rays have the most energy in the electromagnetic spectrum
What is a Electromagnetic spectrum?
The combination of different colours due to the dispersion of sun light is called spectrum. This type of spectrum is called continues or line spectrum.
What three parts of the electromagnetic spectrum contains the majority of the sun's rays?
yellow
What is the arrangement of electromagnetic waves according to their wavelengths and frequencies called?
That's called the electromagnetic spectrum.
What is a good sentence with the words electromagnetic spectrum in it?
The electromagnetic spectrum spans from the lowly radio signals (1x104 Hz) that we use for terrestrial broadcasting to gamma rays (1x1021 Hz) from the sun! ===================
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum do you feel as heat from the sun?
That part called infra-red.
