Why not earth radiate light?
Earth does radiate light in the form of thermal radiation, which is emitted as heat energy. This radiation is typically in the infrared range and is a result of the Earth's surface absorbing sunlight and then re-emitting it as heat.
Do stars radiate heat energy?
Yes, stars radiate heat energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, which includes visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared radiation. This is how stars produce light and heat that we can see and feel from Earth.
Why do we see things?
Because light reflects off objects
What is the best obsevation of refration of light?
The best observation of refraction of light is by observing objects that are in water. By observing objects that are in water, the objects usually appear as if they are not straight.
What are the icy objects that light up the light sky?
comets.
What objects can radiate energy?
Objects that can radiate energy include stars, light bulbs, heated coils, and the Earth's surface. The type of radiation (such as heat, light, or electromagnetic waves) emitted by an object depends on its temperature and composition.
Objects that absorbs and radiate heat?
Objects that absorb and radiate heat well are usually made of materials with high thermal conductivity, such as metals like aluminum and copper. These materials can quickly absorb heat from their surroundings and also release it efficiently through radiation. Dark, matte surfaces also tend to absorb and radiate heat better than shiny or light-colored surfaces.
What is the ability to radiate light?
Luminescence.
Do all objects radiate?
no...
Do dark rocks absorb more heat than light rocks?
Dark rocks will absorb more radiant heat than light rocks, for the same reason that any dark object absorbs more heat than an equivalent light object. Light objects appear "light" to us because they reflect more light than objects which appear dark. Dark objects appear dark because they absorb more light and reflect less. However, dark objects will radiate more heat that light objects. Actually, dark rocks do NOT absorb more radiant heat than light rocks. Nor do they radiate more heat than light rocks. Dark rocks DO absorb more LIGHT than light rocks and they then radiate this light at heat. Light rocks reflect the light rather than absorb it and therefore do not radiate as much heat. If you put a light rock and a dark rock next to a HEAT source, the amount of heat absorbed will be related to the makeup of the material rather than to the color.
Which method of heat transfer can take place if two objects at different temperatures are placed without touching each other in a vacuum?
Heat doesn't travel through a vacuum. The energy could be changed to light and radiate across the gap, so that would be radiation.
Bodies that radiate light are called?
Luminous
What is a sentence using the word radiate?
Here points radiate out from the central idea or concept.
When do objects radiate heat?
When their temperature is greater than the temperature of the adjacent zones.
What is the medium for light?
Light, whatever the wavelength, does not need a medium in order to radiate.
Do darker objects radiate heat better than lighter objects?
Yes, darker objects tend to absorb and emit more heat than lighter objects because they absorb a broader spectrum of radiation. This is why on a sunny day, a dark-colored car will feel hotter to the touch than a light-colored car.
Do hotter objects radiate more total energy per unit area than colder objects?
Yes, hotter objects radiate more total energy per unit area than colder objects. This is described by Stefan-Boltzmann's law, which states that the total energy emitted by a blackbody is proportional to the fourth power of its temperature.
