Question

Why is the suns spectra not a continuous spectrum and still allows us to figure out what the sun is made of?

Answer 1

Answer:

The sun’s spectrum though not a continuous spectrum allows us to represent the visible radiation. The spectrum from the sun has missing parts because the lights gets absorbed and not because of the sun.

Continuous spectra are discharged by any article that emanates heat. The light is spread out into a consistent band with each wavelength having some measure of radiation. For instance, when daylight is gone through a crystal, the light is spread out into it's colors.

When light passes through the sun’s atmosphere the spectrum is absorbed. The sun’s spectrum consists of seven colors VIBGYOR. When sun’s rays fall into the prism they are disbursed into seven colors.
