Astronomynotes describes general properties of light, frequency, the spectrum, and temperature. Other topics include: light production, continuous spectra, emission lines, absorption lines and the Bohr model for the atom. There is also an explanation of the Doppler Effect and why spectral lines are used to measure doppler shifts.
This resource is part of 2 Physics Front Topical Units.
Topic: Nature and Behavior of Light
Unit Title: Behavior of Light An award-winning set of tutorials created by an astronomer to give beginning students a brief overview of astronomy's place in the scientific endeavor. The section linked here on electromagnetic radiation is a well-sequenced resource that helps the student see that light can behave as both a wave and a particle. Link to Unit:
