SPECTROSCOPY Spectroscope Instrument for studying spectra; an instrument for dispersing light usually light in the visible range, into a spectrum in order to measure it. SPECTROSCOPY Three types of spectrum: 1. Continuous spectrum 2. Dark-line spectrum (Absorption spectrum) 3. Bright-line spectrum (...
24.1 The Study of Light Electromagnetic Radiation The electromagnetic spectrum is all of the energy waves of radiation produced by the sun. It is arranged by wavelength – the distance from the start of one wave to the start of another. And frequencies – the number of waves per distance. Wh...
EMR or EM radiation is the result of oscillating electrical and magnetic fields that move as an energy force in wave form through space. Depending on the wavelength of a particular EMR source, it may be visible to the human eye (in the light spectrum). ...
