New cards

what is the perfect black body?

  • object that absorbs all the radiation that hits it

    • no radiation reflected / transmitted

  • best emitters of radiation

2
New cards

what does the intensity and distribution of the wavelengths emitted by an object depend on?

  • object’s temperature

    • intensity = how much energy is transferred in a given area in a certain amount of time

    • temp increase = increase in intensity of emitted wavelengths

3
New cards

how is the intensity affected by the type of wavelength?

shorter wavelength = intensity increases quicker

4
New cards

what happens to the peak wavelength (wavelength with the highest intensity) as the object gets hotter?

decreases
