Rachel is learning about electromagnetic radiation that comes from the Sun. What types of electromagnetic radiation does the Sun emit?
a
all types of electromagnetic radiation
b
ultraviolet radiation, only
c
gamma rays and ultraviolet radiation
d
infrared, visible, and ultraviolet radiation
The Sun emits different types of electromagnetic radiation, including infrared radiation, visible light, and ultraviolet radiation. This is why we can see the sunlight and feel its warmth, but also why prolonged exposure to the Sun's UV radiation can be harmful to our skin. Gamma rays are also emitted by the Sun, but they are less common and are mostly absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere. Therefore, option (d) is correct as it includes all three types of electromagnetic radiation that the Sun emits in significant amounts.
Oh okay, Thanks!
You're welcome!
thats wrong
I apologize for the mistake. It is actually option (a) - all types of electromagnetic radiation - that is the correct answer. The Sun emits all types of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and even gamma rays.
That is correct!!
Thank you for confirming! If you have any further questions or doubts, feel free to ask.
