How can I see an line spectrum from a cloud of gas?
If there is a star shining through the gas then some of the starlight will be absorbed by the gas to deliver spectral lines of the "stuff" making up the gas.
What type of spectrum is produced when light emitted from a hot low-density cloud of gas passes through a prism?
When light emitted from a hot low-density cloud of gas passes through a prism, it produces an emission spectrum. This spectrum consists of bright lines at specific wavelengths, corresponding to the unique energy transitions of the atoms in the gas. Each element emits light at characteristic frequencies, resulting in distinct lines that can be used to identify the chemical composition of the gas. This is different from a continuous spectrum, which would show a smooth range of colors.
A glowing gasous nebula whose light comes from the fluorescence of a nearby star is a?
reflection nebula- An interstellar cloud of gas and dust that shines because light from nearby bright stars is reflected or scattered toward us. The emission component of the spectrum is due to the gas, the reflection component is due to the dust.
What would happen if the light from a star passes through a cool cloud of sodium gas?
The cool cloud of sodium gas would absorb specific wavelengths of light known as the sodium D lines. This absorption pattern would result in dark absorption lines superimposed on the star's spectrum, allowing astronomers to identify the presence of sodium in the gas cloud.
What does the spectrum of a solar prominence reveal?
The spectrum of a solar prominence reveals information about the elements present in the gas, the temperature, density, and motions of the material within the prominence, as well as magnetic fields influencing its behavior. By studying the spectrum, scientists can gain insights into the physical properties and processes occurring in solar prominences.
What type of spectrum can be produced by a solid liquid or a gas?
Continuous spectrum.
What type of spectrum can be produced by solid liquid or gas?
Continuous spectrum.
An astronomer finds that the visible spectrum of a mysterious object shows bright emission lines What can the astronomer conclude about the source?
it comes from a hot, tenuous gas
Which of the three types of spectrum would be observed?
The type of spectrum observed would depend on the source of light. A continuous spectrum is produced by a hot, dense object like a solid, liquid, or dense gas. An emission spectrum is generated by a thin, hot gas, while an absorption spectrum is created by a cooler gas in front of a light source.
What is the gas called which comes from the mouth?
The gas that comes from the mouth is called "exhaled air," and it mainly consists of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and traces of other gases. Burping is another way that gas can be expelled from the stomach through the mouth.
When light having a continuous spectrum passes through a cool gas what kind of spectrum is produced?
When light with a continuous spectrum passes through a cool gas, it produces an absorption spectrum. In this process, specific wavelengths of light are absorbed by the gas atoms, which correspond to the energy levels of the electrons. As a result, the continuous spectrum shows dark lines, known as absorption lines, at the wavelengths where the gas has absorbed light. This phenomenon provides valuable information about the composition and properties of the gas.
Which type of spectrum can be produced by a solid liquid or gas?
An emission spectrum can be produced by a solid, liquid, or gas. This type of spectrum consists of bright lines or bands of specific wavelengths emitted when electrons in the material transition to lower energy levels.
What is the difference between sunlight produced spectrum and hydrogen gas produced spectrum?
Sunlight produced spectrum is continuous and contains a broad range of wavelengths, while hydrogen gas produced spectrum consists of discrete lines at specific wavelengths due to the unique energy levels of hydrogen atoms. Sunlight spectrum is continuous due to the various processes that produce light, whereas hydrogen gas spectrum is a result of the energy levels of hydrogen atoms emitting photons of specific wavelengths.
Why are the colors of the spectrum different in each gas?
A spectrum is a function of the light source. A gas will absorb / emit light based on its molecular bonds, and different gases have different bonds.
This gas comes from the you breathe in?
its called carbon dioxide. i belive its toxic, but i dont really know
Why is the sun red and not blue like gas?
The Sun is not red. Its radiation is most intense in the yellow-green part of the spectrum, which is why it is called a "yellow dwarf" star.
Why you called to both liquid as well as gas as a fluid?
They both flow. That's probably where the name comes from.
