Does a light bulb give off radiant or thermal energy?
THe light bulb emits light while in the process heat in the infrared spectrum is emitted.
Does infrared pick up heat?
Yes, infrared radiation can detect heat. Infrared sensors are designed to detect and measure the infrared radiation emitted by objects, including heat emitted by living organisms or warm objects.
How does infrared light reflect off objects?
Infrared radiation or light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum and acts the same as visible light does.Infrared can be absorbed and reflected by objects much the same way as visible light. More on Infrared:Some black objects that absorb visible light radiation may reflect infrared.Much of the absorbed visible light energy is re-emitted as infrared up to many hours later.There are subcategories of infrared, two common ones are near-infrared and far-infrared. Near being closer to visible light.
Most of the radiation emitted by a human body is in the form of?
Infrared
What type of wave that is emitted by all warm bodies?
infrared
What EM waves are emitted by fire?
Light (visible) and heat (infrared)
Are infrared radiations emitted by glowing of firewood?
Yes - infrared radiation is heat. Glowing firewood emits heat (as well as visible light)
What type of energy is produced when a heated chemical glows?
Photons are emitted (light energy) and infrared energy.
Does a light bulb give off radiant or thermal energy?
THe light bulb emits light while in the process heat in the infrared spectrum is emitted.
What kind of light are you emitting?
You are emitting infrared light, which is just felt as heat. This however, is very weak, and usually can't be felt. However, enough of this energy is emitted that an infrared camera can pick it up.
In what form is radiant energy reflected back into space?
Energy is re-radiated by the Earth as infrared (thermal) radiation.
Does infrared pick up heat?
Yes, infrared radiation can detect heat. Infrared sensors are designed to detect and measure the infrared radiation emitted by objects, including heat emitted by living organisms or warm objects.
What are the infrared light used for?
Infrared light has a large range of applications, and is often utilized where visible light cannot be detected, or something is blocking visible light but does not block infrared light. For example, when looking toward the center of the Milky Way large amounts of dust obscure the visible light that emanates from the center of the galaxy. This dust though does not obscure infrared light at certain wavelengths, and so astronomers can use cameras that are sensitive to this infrared light to obtain a picture of this region of space. Infrared light is also used in thermal imaging systems, and night-vision instruments are often sensitive to the infrared wavelengths that are emitted by warm objects.

Does the sun or earth emit light with higher energy?
Only the sun emits radiation in the wavelengths of visible light, which is considerably higher energy than infrared emitted by Earth.

Infrared
What type of wave that is emitted by all warm bodies?
infrared
