Class 12th Physics 2018 Set2 Delhi Board Paper Solution
Why are infra-red waves often called heat waves? Explain
Infra-red waves often called heat waves because infra red rays are heat radiation and therefore all hot bodies are sources of infra red rays about 60% of solar radiation are infra red in nature.
