The answer is D) absorb most of the light that falls on them
A blackbody is an object that absorbs most (theoretically all) of the light that falls on it. Stars are called black bodies because they demonstrate something close to this property. Why do they appear white and not black? As black body radiators heat up, they slowly turn from black to grey to white, according to the human eye. Since stars are incredibly hot, they appear white to us.
Answer:
D. shortest wavelength
Explanation:
Photons with the highest energy have the shortest wavelength. The shorter the wavelength, the higher the energy of a photon.
A photon is a quantity that transmits electromagnetic energy from one place to the other.
- Gamma rays have photons that transmits the highest amount of energy.
- The rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency of all electromagnetic radiations.
Energy, wavelength and frequency of a photon are connected using the expression:
E = h f =
E is the energy
h is the Planck's constant
f is the frequency.
Using the Universal Gratitation Law, we have:
Again applying the formula in the new situation, comes:
