The absorption spectrum of a hydrogen atom contains dark bands at specific wavelengths The emission spectrum of a hydrogen atom contains bright bands at the same wavelengths Explain what causes ther?

The short answer is these bands represent the (frequency) wavelengths which correspond to orbital configurations for the atom (matter). Absorption is used to identify chemical bonds of elements & compounds by radiating a substance across a range of frequencies & measuring the magnitude of the signal at these frequencies in chemical analysis of a sample. Emission is based upon the same principle except that the substance is heated to the point that it emits radiation (light).


What is the comparison between the size of the visible light spectrum and the size of the electromagnetic spectrum?

The visible light spectrum is a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, covering wavelengths from approximately 400 to 700 nanometers. The electromagnetic spectrum, on the other hand, includes a much broader range of wavelengths, from gamma rays to radio waves, spanning from very short wavelengths to billions of meters long.


When they say Increasing wavelength Referring to spectrum do they mean short wavelengths?

increasing wavelength means shorter frequency.


Do tv's have short wavelengths?

TV broadcast signals are in the VHF & UHF radio bands, shorter than most of the radio bands but longer than the microwave band.


Which colors are on the short side of the wave spectrum?

Violet and blue. The spectrum of visible light, from shortest to longest wavelengths can be listed as: violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red.


Do blue light have a long wavelengths?

No, blue light actually has short wavelengths compared to other colors in the visible light spectrum. This short wavelength is why blue light is often associated with effects like glare and eye strain.


Can you see microwaves?

Microwaves, defined as electromagnetic waves with wavelengths as long as 10 cm and as short as 0.1 cm, are not in the visible spectrum.


What is the electromagentic spectrum?

The electromagnetic spectrum includes all forms of electromagnetic radiation, ranging from gamma rays with very short wavelengths to radio waves with very long wavelengths. This spectrum encompasses various types of radiation, such as visible light, ultraviolet light, microwaves, and X-rays, each with unique properties and applications.


Is gamma ray and X-ray electromagnetic rays?

Yes. They are both high up in the electromagnetic spectrum, with short wavelengths and high frequency.


What property of waves makes the types of waves in the spectrum different?

The frequency of the waves is what makes the various types of waves in the spectrum different. Low frequency waves like radio waves have long wavelengths, while high frequency waves like gamma rays have short wavelengths.


What is the full range of wavelength?

The full range of wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum extends from extremely short gamma rays with wavelengths less than 0.01 nanometers, to extremely long radio waves with wavelengths over thousands of kilometers.
