Does the intensity of infrared waves emitted by the Sun change as the wavelength of the ultraviolet waves increases?

yes


Where does the maximum intensity of radiation given off by the sun occur?

The sun's output peaks at about 500 nm.


What is sun's intensity?

the approximate intensity of the sun is about 15millionK


Does the sun and moon emit light?

the sun only emit light. not the moon. it will reflect the light of the sun.


What form of electmagnetic waves does the sun give off?

The Sun emits radiation in all parts of the Electromagnetic Spectrum. However, the strongest intensity radiation is at wavelength of around 450 nanometers. This is in the visible region.


Why does the sky look blue and the sun look during the day?

According to RAYLEIGH scattering intensity is inversely proportional to the fourth power of wavelength so blue violet and indigo has shorter wavelength and more intensity when it gets scattered our eyes is sensitive to blue colour so sky appears blue to our eyes not violet or indigo


Will the sun turn blue?

The sun does emit blue light but it also emits red and the other colors with almost the same intensity. A mixture of all the colors results in white light. As the temperature decreases, the peak moves to the right, and the sun would start to appear red.


Does the energy from Sun energise other planets so they can emit light?

No. Planets do not emit light; they can only reflect light from the Sun.


How does light emit?

Gases emits light. When an electric current is passed through a gas, the gas emits light. For ex. Fluorescent lamps, neon lamps. In case of sun, most of the photons are released from the surface of the sun with wavelength 400 and 700nm, so we are able to see light that the sun emits.


Does the earth or the sun emit more infrared radiation?

true


Does the sun emit radiant energy?

Yes.


How many btu's does the sun emit?

Alot.
