When light gives off by a burning substance is viewed through a spectroscope it would appear as?

a continuous spectrum with all colors blending together.


What wavelengths of light are indicated by the following scale readings observed through a hand spectroscope?

To determine the wavelengths of light indicated by scale readings observed through a hand spectroscope, refer to the calibration markings on the spectroscope. Each marking corresponds to a specific wavelength of light. By aligning the observed scale reading with the markings on the spectroscope, you can identify the wavelength of the light being observed.


Can sunlight pass through laser beam?

Yes, sunlight can pass through a laser beam as they are both forms of electromagnetic radiation. However, the laser beam may appear as a visible beam when sunlight is passing through it due to scattering and reflection effects.


What is the spectrum of sunlight?

spectrum of light is the colors of son or u can say the elements of sun. we find out the elments of sun with the help of spectroscope, a prism in spectroscope help to break down the colors or spectra of sun light. spectrum of light is the colors of son or u can say the elements of sun. we find out the elments of sun with the help of spectroscope, a prism in spectroscope help to break down the colors or spectra of sun light.


Why does sunlight show up as a rainbow of colors in a spectroscope?

When you shine white light through a prism, at the correct angle wherever the prism is pointing you will see the spectrum, this is because when the light shines through the angles of the prism, the white light will become dispersed through the angles so that the white light is streched out to reveal what the spectrum is made up of =D

Why can you see bright lines from the hand held spectroscope when viewing a discharge tube of gas?

When viewing a discharge tube of gas through a hand-held spectroscope, bright lines appear because the gas inside the tube emits specific wavelengths of light when energized. The spectroscope separates the light into its component colors or wavelengths, allowing you to see the discrete emission lines characteristic of the gas present in the tube.

what happens to sunlight as it enters the earth's atmosphere?

Sunlight experiences some degree of scattering (technically, Rayleigh Scattering) as it passes through the atmosphere, which causes the sky to appear blue and the sunlight to appear yellow. Some of the sunlight encounters clouds, while some reaches the ground.
