The most common way light is emitted is by the so called thermal emission, like for example normal lamps or the sun. In this case a certain amount of heat is emitted while emitting light. Naturally the object can also be cooled much sooner for example with a cooler (if it is not the sun naturally :-) ).
Since the color (frequency) of the emitted light depends on temperature while the object cools the emitted light changes color from blue to yellow to red to infrared and so on down to microwaves.
There are however other means of emitting light exist, by laser effect for example. In this case the effect of cooling is strictly related to the type of laser material and optical pump used and it seems to me out of the scope of this short answer to discuss this point.
No, most objects do not give off their own light. Objects either reflect light from a light source or emit light when they are heated to a high temperature.
The sources that can give out their own light are "Light Sources" and the same opposite the sources which can not give out their own light are know as Non Light Sources .
An object that doesn't give out light is called a non-luminous object. These objects do not emit their own light but can reflect light from other sources.
False. We can see objects that reflect light from sources like the sun or artificial light sources, even if they don't emit their own light.
i think luminous means when something gives off light and non-luminous means when something does not give off light.

Objects that do not emit or give out light or energy of their own are referred to as non-luminous objects.

Yes, candles and campfires are considered luminous objects because they produce light through heat or chemical reactions. They emit visible light through combustion processes that generate heat and illumination.
Some things that give out their own light are described as "luminous." This includes natural sources like the sun and fireflies, as well as artificial sources such as light bulbs and LEDs. Luminous objects emit light due to various physical processes, including incandescence, fluorescence, or bioluminescence. In contrast, objects that do not emit light but can reflect it are termed "illuminated."
i think luminous means when something gives off light and non-luminous means when something does not give off light.
Stars, galaxies, and quasars are among celestial objects that emit their own light. Stars, such as our Sun, undergo nuclear fusion to produce light and heat. Galaxies contain billions of stars and emit light due to the combined glow of these stars. Quasars are supermassive black holes with surrounding disks of gas that emit powerful radiation.
Luminous objects are those that emit light of their own, such as the Sun, stars, and fireflies. They are sources of visible light due to processes like nuclear fusion or chemical reactions occurring within them.
Because the stars of Andromeda emit light
Objects that don't give out light are called "non-luminous objects." These objects reflect light that falls on them, making them visible to our eyes.
