MCQ
Fraunhofer lines of the solar system is an example of
  • A
    Emission spectrum
  • B
    Emission band spectrum
  • C
    Continuous emission spectrum
  • Line absorption spectrum

Answer

Correct option: D.
Line absorption spectrum
d
(d)Fraunhofer lines are produced by the absorption of rays of the Sun in the atmosphere. When white light from photosphere passes through chromosphere, the vapours and gases present in it absorbs certain wavelengths and produces dark lines (Fraunhofer lines).
