What other forms of radiation besides visible light are admited by the sun?
1) I assume you mean “emitted”? 2) “Visible light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that can be perceived by our eyes. Light has a wavelength of between 0.40 to 0.71 micrometers (µm). Figure 6f-1 illustrates that various spectral color bands that make up light. The Sun emits only a portion (44 %) of its radiation in zone. Solar radiation spans a spectrum from approximately 0.1 to 4.0 micrometers. The band from 0.1 to 0.4 micrometers is called ultraviolet radiation. About 7% of the Sun’s emission is in this wavelength band. About 48% of the Sun’s radiation falls in the region between 0.71 to 4.0 micrometers. This band is called the near (0.71 to 1.5 micrometers) and far infrared (1.5 to 4.0 micrometers).” Source and further information: http://www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/6f.html 3) “Your eyes tell you that the Sun obviously delivers energy to Earth in the form of visible light. If you think about it a bit, especially in terms of the choices you make about UV-A and UV-B p
