Indiana University Southeast Physics Applets: Blackbody Radiation Curve

Detail Page «

Website Detail Page

written by Kyle Forinash

This web page contains a simulation of the spectrum emitted by blackbody radiation. Students can change the temperature of the source object and see how the spectrum shifts. Related context-rich questions ask students to correlate observed color and temperature. See Related items on this page for a link to the author's full index of physlet-based simulations.

This page is part of a collection of Java applets with tutorial questions developed for students of undergraduate physics.
