What else can I help you with?
Who first realized that stars were distant suns?
an ancient greek philosipher named Aristotle first developed the theory that stars were distant suns
What do scientists use to break up the suns light into spectrum?
Scientists use a prism or a diffraction grating to break up the sun's light into a spectrum. These tools can separate light into its component colors, allowing scientists to study the different wavelengths present in sunlight.
Why is the suns spectrum and the moon's spectrum the same?
The sun and the moon's spectra are not the same. The Sun's spectrum shows continuous radiation across a range of wavelengths due to its high temperature, while the moon's spectrum shows reflected sunlight with absorption lines due to its lack of inherent light source. They have different compositions and physical properties affecting their spectra.
What is the plural possessive of sun?
The plural possessive of "sun" is "suns'".
3 layers of the suns atmosphere?
The three layers of the Sun's atmosphere are the photosphere, the chromosphere, and the corona. The photosphere is the visible surface where sunspots are found. The chromosphere is a thin layer above the photosphere where solar flares occur. The corona is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere, extending millions of kilometers into space.
How a star is similar to the sun if it has the same absorption lines in its spectrum that occur in the suns spectrum?
because they will have the same elements in the atmosphere...
What element is found in the suns core?
There are several elements found in the sun's core. Some of these include helium, hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, iron, silicon, sulfur, and others.
Does the suns spectrum change throughout the day?
No, the sun's spectrum remains relatively constant throughout the day. The changes we see in sunlight, like color shifts during sunrise and sunset, are due to the scattering of light in the Earth's atmosphere, not changes in the sun's spectrum itself.
Which element is the main source of the suns energy?
Hydrogen and Helium
What protects us from the suns uv rays?
The thing which protects us from suns UV rays is the ozone. It is an allotrope of oxygen element.
What element is undergoing fusion reactions at the suns center?
Hydrogen (into Helium).
What element makes up seventy five percent of the suns mass?
Hydrogen.
Where does the first suns ray fall?
japan
Are the suns waves electromagnetic waves?
The sun is a mechanical wave because it doesn't have radio waves in it and it doesn't have spectrum energy, unlike electromagnetic energy.
What two gases are found in the suns core?
Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He)
What portion of the spectrum does suns black body curve peak?
The Sun's black body curve peaks in the visible spectrum, specifically in the green portion around 500 nanometers. This is why our eyes have evolved to be most sensitive to this wavelength, making green a dominant color in our perception of sunlight.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum contains the majority of the suns rays?
IR, visible, UV. Our sun's radiation peaks in the yellow portion of the spectrum.
