question 18
which of the following is the most likely spectrum type to be seen from a normal star like our sun?
a continuous spectrum
just the spectrum of hydrogen
absorption line spectrum
emission line spectrum

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A normal star like the Sun has a hot, dense interior that emits a continuous spectrum of light. This light passes through the cooler outer - layers of the star's atmosphere. The atoms in the cooler outer - layers absorb certain wavelengths of light, creating dark absorption lines in the spectrum. So, the most common spectrum type observed from a normal star is an absorption line spectrum.

Answer:

C. absorption line spectrum
