Studying the line spectra produced by hot gases and absorbed by cooler gases allows us to identify the elements in stars. When a gas is very hot, it doesn’t emit all wavelengths of light.

This spectrum can be rearranged depending on the quality of the modality. Here we have ordered them based upon the amount of preparation time that might be needed to enact them in your classroom. We ...

These 'Fraunhofer' lines are due to the absorption of light of specific frequencies by the gases in the upper atmosphere of the sun. \(1\). Line spectra are produced when electrons move from one ...
