Yeah Oh all right The sparring science people The last

00:05

one of this section Here we go Yeah Which of

00:09

the following conclusions about the sun would be supported by

00:13

Hirsch ALS experiment But when we get more choice here

00:17

thinking all right well before Hersh als famous experiment people

00:21

thought only visible light existed right There was no infrared

00:25

invented unquote like that they couldn't see was pretty much

00:29

all lumped together with the dark Yeah and therefore it

00:33

wasn't a type of light Well in this experiment Herschel

00:35

allows sunlight to pass through a prism that disperses it

00:38

into its component colors right colors of a rainbow like

00:42

a frog song About that Well he measures the temperature

00:46

of each of these colors and sees that the temperature

00:49

increases as he moves from blue to red Right Well

00:53

then there's one area that he measures with his thermometer

00:55

that increases in temperature but which doesn't appear to the

00:59

naked eye as a component color of light As the

01:04

pastor says this made him think But there must be

01:07

another type of light right Well being able to detect

01:10

stuff that's invisible to humans through science Out now that's

01:14

hot right So the answer is a The sun emits 00:01:18.13 --> [endTime] many different types of light Duff
