1 Electromagnetic Spectrum

2 Different Types of Light  Light is a form of energy  It travels in waves  Also called Electromagnetic Radiation  Some Electromagnetic Radiation we can see (Visible Light), but most we cannot (Radio, Microwave, Infrared, Ultraviolet, X-Ray and Gamma Rays)

6 Spectral Lines  White light can be broken into all the colours in the visible spectrum

7 Spectral Lines  When we look at the spectrum of stars, there are parts of the spectrum missing.  These parts are missing because of the gasses present  These gases absorb specific spectrum of light

8 Spectral Lines of Gases
