Light is often described as behaving both as a wave and a particle. As a wave, it demonstrates properties of continuity, such as interference patterns and diffraction. However, individual particles of light, called photons, interact discreetly with matter.

Dispersing light from a hot wire which emits white light gives what type of spectrum is it?

A hot, glowing wire emits all wavelengths (or colors) of light. This is sometimes called "blackbody radiation." Since all colors are present, you will get a continuous spectrum.


How a Continuous spectrum forms?

Continuous spectra of light are formed by all forms of white light. This includes light produced by common light bulbs like incandescent and fluorescents.


Is the spectrum of white light from the sun continuous?

Yes, the spectrum of white light from the sun is continuous, containing all colors of the rainbow. This continuous spectrum is due to the sun emitting light across a wide range of wavelengths.


Does candle light have a continuous light spectrum?

No, candle light does not have a continuous light spectrum. It produces a continuous spectrum with missing colors due to absorption by the flame and emission from soot particles, resulting in a warm, orange-yellow color.


Why do incandescent lamps have continuous emissions?

Incandescent lamps have continuous emissions of light because they work by heating a filament wire until it glows and produces light. This continuous emission of light comes from the constant heating of the filament by an electric current passing through it.


Is the continuous spectrum really continuous Or just too close to distinguish?

The spectrum produced by something that's heated, like the sun or an incandescent light, is continuous.


A typical incandescent light bulb produces?

A continuous Spectrum


What are the example of continuous variable?

Height, weight, wavelength of light.


Explain the difference between the continuous spectrum of white light and the atomic emission spectrum of an element?

The difference between continuous spectrum and the atomic emission espectrum of an element is that in emission spectrum, only certain specific frequencies of light are emitted while in a continuous spectrum, a continuous range of colors are seen in the visible light.


What type of spectrum does an incandescent light produce?

There are no bright lines and no dark lines in the spectrum, incandescent light has a continuous spectrum with all visible colors present


Why is airbag light on continuous?

The light is telling you that there is a problem with the air bag system and that it is not functioning. Until the problem is fixed the light will remain on.


What happens if Light and Darkness Dragon negates a continuous effect?

It can't negate continuous 'effects' because it has to chain to activations. Continuous effects do not activate. It can chain to and negate the activation of a continuous spell or trap. If the continuous spell or trap has its activation negated, then the card is destroyed and goes to the graveyard.
