What role dose infra-red radiation play in maintain the Earth’s warmth
Advertisements
उत्तर
Visible light from the atmosphere is absorbed by the Earth’s surface and radiated as infrared radiation which gets trapped by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and water vapour. This is how infrared radiation also plays an important role in maintaining the Earth’s warmth

All components of the electromagnetic spectrum in a vacuum have the same ______
Identify the part of the electromagnetic spectrum which:
- produces the heating effect.
- is absorbed by the ozone layer in the atmosphere.
- is used for studying crystal structure.
Write any one method of the production of each of the above radiations.
In an atom X, electrons absorb the energy from an external source. This energy “excites” the electrons from a lower-energy level to a higher-energy level around the nucleus of the atom. When electrons return to the ground state, they emit photons.
The figure below is the energy level diagram of atom X with three energy levels, E1 = 0.00eV, E2 = 1.78eV and E3 = 2.95eV. The ground state is considered 0 eV for reference. The transition of electrons takes place between levels E1 and E2.
- What wavelength of radiation is needed to excite the atom to energy level E2 from E1?
- Suppose the external source has a power of 100 W. What would be the rate of photon emission?
