Where is infra red radiation emmited from?

Hot objects emit infra-red radiation. E.g. the human body.

How is heat tranferred by radiation?

First of all it is important to note that heat and infra-red rays are NOT the same thing. When an object gets really hot it starts to glow, emitting red light at first, (hence the phrase: 'red hot') because red is the least frequency. Hotter objects emit light of higher frequency. A light bulb and the Sun are both examples of this. But infra-red rays are even lower in frequency than red light. Infra-red rays are emitted in the same way by objects at room temperature. That means you, your computer and everything around you are 'glowing' with this infra-red radiation. Infra-red rays carry energy between objects at the speed of light. This process causes relatively hot objects to cool down faster.


What type of waves are used in night vision?

Infra red radiation is the best. Usually living bodies would emit IR radiations which could be seen through IR spectroscope or telescope. Though IR are not visible to our eyes those can be recorded on suitable films.


What are the infra red radiation sources?

Anything that has a temperature emits IR radiation. Hotter things emit more at a higher frequency. Then they become Red.


Which will emit the most infra red radiation a glass of milk taken from the fridge or a cup of tea?

In general, a hotter object will emit more radiation per unit area.


Is piece of red hot iron a transparent translucent opaque Luminous or non-Luminous?

A red hot piece of iron is opaque, which means it does not allow light to pass through it. It appears glowing or luminous due to the high temperature causing it to emit visible light.


What is the color of stars that are the least hot?

Stars that are the least hot, such as red dwarfs and red giants, appear red in color. This is because they emit more red light due to their lower temperatures compared to hotter stars that emit more blue and white light.


Can you sleep with your bearded dragon overnight?

Yes it will ! Think about it - In their natural environment, the sundisappears at night - leaving them in total darkness ! To maintain the correct temperature - you need a thermostatically controlled infra-red bulb. These emit no visible light, but do emit heat. It should be surrounded by a wire mesh guard to prevent your lizard touching it, as it will get hot !


Why does light attract heat?

It Doesn't!!! Light sources sometimes emit heat as Infra Red radiation which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, like visible light, but you can't see it. It Doesn't!!! Light sources sometimes emit heat as Infra Red radiation which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, like visible light, but you can't see it. Light = Energy = Heat = Can make light?


What color does an iron bar turn when you heat it?

The color depends on how hot the metal is and the chemical composition. 100 degress F = no visible change. non-viible light frequenies are used by infra red no-contact therm. other visible light colors progress as this: orange red hot white
