The most efficient absorbers of electromagnetic radiation are typically black bodies, which absorb all incident radiation without reflecting any. In practice, materials like carbon black or certain metals treated to have high surface roughness can mimic this behavior, achieving high absorption rates across various wavelengths. Additionally, specialized materials like photonic crystals or metamaterials can be engineered to enhance absorption in specific spectral ranges.

Why are dull black surfaces considered good emitters or absorbers?

Dull black surfaces are considered good emitters or absorbers because they have a high emissivity, which means they can both absorb and emit radiation efficiently. The rough surface of a dull black object traps more light and heat than a smooth surface, allowing for efficient absorption and emission of energy.


When heating a substance over a bunsen burner where should the object be placed for most efficient heating?

The object should be placed at the tip of the inner blue cone of the bunsen burner flame. This is the hottest part of the flame and will provide the most efficient heating to the substance. Adjust the height of the object as needed to maintain the best heating.


What are perfect absorbers of radiation called?

Perfect absorbers of radiation are called blackbodies. These are idealized objects that absorb all electromagnetic radiation that falls upon them, without reflecting or transmitting any of it. Blackbodies are efficient at absorbing radiation across a wide range of wavelengths.

Why car radiators are black?

Objects that are black in color are the most efficient emitters/absorbers of electromagnetic radiation. Heat is infrared (IR) electromagnetic radiation. If the black object is hotter than its surroundings (which a car radiator usually is) it acts as an emitter, if the black object is cooler than its surroundings it acts as an absorber. Thus a hot car radiator that is black will emit IR heat radiation more efficiently than ti would if it was any other color. Thus it will help keep the engine from overheating better than a radiator of any other color.
