The hydrogen line or "shine" is the frequency (1420.40575177 MHz) or wavelength (21.10611405413 cm) of electromagnetic energy emitted by an excited hydrogen atom. This is not a "shine" in the sense of visible - it is in the microwave frequency range. It is useful in radio astronomy because it passes through dust clouds that block visible light.
What else can I help you with?
Does hydrogen have shine?
Hydrogen doesn't have a shine because it is a gas. "Dr .Michelle Hilton
How does the stars shine but the sun does not light up the universe sky?
they are burning hydrogen
How many stars are there and why they shine?
Innumerable stars are there in the space. Our sun is also a star. Almost all stars shine because of fusion of hydrogen nuclei.
What element creates the energy that causes the sun to shine?
The element that creates the energy that causes the sun to shine is hydrogen. Through a process called nuclear fusion, hydrogen atoms in the sun's core combine to form helium, releasing vast amounts of energy in the form of light and heat.
How much luster does hydrogen have naturally?
Hydrogen typically does not exhibit luster in its natural state since it is a colorless and odorless gas. Luster is a property associated with the shine or reflective quality of a material's surface, which is not applicable to gaseous hydrogen.
What atom makes the Sun shine?
There is no atom that makes the Sun shine. The Sun is essentially a giant nuclear reactor primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. Nuclear fusion occurs in the sun fusing hydrogen atoms into helium, releasing enormous amounts of energy as heat and light.
What energy source would allow the sun to shine 5 billion years?
The sun shines due to nuclear fusion in its core, where hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium. This process provides the sun with the energy needed to shine, and it is estimated that the sun will continue to shine for another 5 billion years before it exhausts its hydrogen fuel and transitions to the next stage of its life cycle.
What is fusion in the sun?
That refers to the conversion of hydrogen-1 to helium-4. This process frees a lot of energy, and is what makes the Sun shine.
What is a hydrogen filter for a telescope?
A filter to let through certain wavelenghts of light. The wavelengths that Hydrogen is most active in. Other light does not get through so objects that "shine" in those wavelengths do not show in the image.
Is hydrogen shiny?
Hydrogen itself is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas, so it does not have a shine or luster of its own. However, hydrogen can be used in various industrial applications where it may be involved in reactions that produce shiny products or surfaces.
What happens to the missing mass when hydrogen atoms fuse to make helium atoms?
It is in the energy that is radiated away.
How long does the sun shine?
Our sun will shine for another 5 billion years
