Question
Chapter 27, Problem 1CQ
To determine
Why is it difficult to discern the shapes of the object inside a very hot kiln.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
When the object is inside a hot kiln, the object gets heated and thus emit thermal
Conclusion:
The glowing of the hot kiln and the hot object emits continuous wavelength from infrared, visible and ultraviolet portions of the spectrum. So, it is difficult to discern the shapes of the object inside a very hot kiln

- #1: A mirage (“inferior mirage”) is formed when the air gets gradually cooler as the height above the ground increases. This has led to many thirsty travelers in deserts seeing a lake of “water”; or drivers on a highway seeing a “water or oil” spill ahead, where there is none. Discuss what would happen if the air grows gradually warmer as the height is increased? This often happens over bodies of water or ice/snow-covered ground. This effect is called “Looming” or a “superior mirage.” (Hint: Cooler air will have a refractive index that is higher than warmer air. Use a diagram/drawing to help with the visualization of layers of different temperature air and to explain this effect.)arrow_forwardDispersion occurs when _____. some materials bend light more than other materials a material slows down some colors more than others a material changes some colors more than others light has different speeds in different materialsarrow_forward4arrow_forward
