Question

stars emit different wavelengths of visible light due to their different temperatures. how does this phenomenon support the particle model of light?
a. it is the result of the photoelectric effect.
b. it is the result of diffraction.
c. it is the result of blackbody radiation.
d. it is the result of interference.

Explanation:

Black - body radiation is explained by the particle model of light. Stars, as approximate black - bodies, emit different wavelengths based on their temperatures. The photoelectric effect is about electrons being ejected from a material by light, diffraction and interference are wave - like properties of light.

Answer:

C. It is the result of blackbody radiation.
