True FalseThe sun's radiation is most intense in the visible region. True False Radio waves travel in vacuum at a lower speed than the visible light. True False X-rays can be produced in transitions involving inner electrons in an atom. True False A vertical automobile antenna is sensitive to electric fields polarized vertically. True False Visible light is often emitted when valence electrons change their state. True False Gamma rays can be produced in transitions of an atomic nucleus from one state to another. True False The Earth's atmosphere is quite transparent to infrared radiation.
