In molecules, there are bonds. When they are exposed to infra-red radiation, different bonds absorb the infra-red radiation at different wavelengths. In the observed spectrum, there are "bond stretches", where the observed intensity of certain wavelengths drops due to the absorption. By comparing these "stretches" with a data-booklet, you can see which bonds the molecules have. This is called Infra-red Spectroscopy.

Who invented the infra red waves?
Will Young invented the Infra Red Waves in 1943
What is infra red radition?
Well,infrared when you split it up means below red. infra, meaning below and then you add red
What object emits infra-red?
all object that are warmer than absolute zero but not warm enough to glow emits some amount of infra red.
How do infrared rays give heat?
Infra-red ray's do not give heat merely when they come into contact with something the infra-red (light) energy is converted into thermal energy
What are the uses of infra-red in everyday life?
In toasters TV remotes.

Where is infra red rays in space?
Infra-red "rays" are part of the continuous electromagnetic spectrum stretching from gamma rays at one end to radio waves at the other. One property of electromagnetic waves is their ability to travel through a vacuum. Infra-red is emitted from the surface of any hot body (anything above absolute zero which is approx -273degC) for example the sun. The simple answer therefore is that infra-red is everywhere in space where absorption has not taken place.

When was Infra-Red - song - created?
Infra-Red - song - was created on 2006-06-19.
What is the Infra red?
vibrating molecules relase infra-red radiation (that's hot things)
How are infra red images taken?
anything warm rleases infra red waves the hotter an object is the more it releases. an inrer red camra detect infra and makes an image out of it.
What is the source of infra-red?
vibrating molecules relase infra-red radiation (that's hot things)
Where is infra red radiation emmited from?
Hot objects emit infra-red radiation. E.g. the human body.
