What is the color of light emitted by the sun?

The color of light emitted by the sun is white.


What is the matter emitted by the sun called?

Various things are emitted byt the sun - light and heat are the best known but other electromagnetic waves such as gamma rays are also emitted. Theoretically gravitons are sent out too


What best describes the primary wavelength of radiation emitted by Earth's surface?

they are longer than those emitted by the sun.


Charged particles emitted from the sun into space?

Is heat emitted from the sun a physical change?

No. It is a nuclear change.


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

Yes, as the wavelength of the ultraviolet waves increases, the intensity of the infrared waves emitted by the Sun tends to decrease. This is because different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation are emitted at different intensities by the Sun based on its temperature and composition.


Where does the peak wavelength emitted by the Sun fall in the electromagnetic spectrum?

The peak wavelength emitted by the Sun falls in the visible spectrum, specifically in the green part of the spectrum around 500 nm. This is why the Sun appears yellow-white to our eyes.


How does the radiation emitted from the sun differ from the radiation emitted by earth?

The Sun emits a broader spectrum of radiation, including visible light, ultraviolet rays, and infrared radiation, while Earth primarily emits infrared radiation due to its lower temperature. The Sun's radiation is much more intense and has higher energy compared to the radiation emitted by Earth.


Most of the light emitted by the sun comes from where?

Most of the light emitted by the Sun comes from its core, where nuclear fusion reactions occur. These reactions convert hydrogen into helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat. This energy then travels outwards, eventually reaching the Sun's surface and being emitted into space as sunlight.


What are the examples of nuclear energy?

Nuclear bombs, nuclear power plants, the sun.


Why is moonlight a reflected light?

The moon reflects light originally emitted by the sun.


Where does the solar wind blow from?

From the sun. It's not really a wind but a stream of charged particles emitted from the sun's upper atmosphere.
