Question

Which electromagnetic waves are emitted by electrons transitioning between energy levels in atoms?

Explanation

**IR effectiveness in remote sensing** because IR scattered less than visible by atmosphere, can detect heat signatures, used in satellite imaging for vegetation, moisture, military night vision, illustrating application based on thermal emission and low scattering. The document states that visible light is emitted when electrons in atoms move from one energy level to a lower energy level. Using c = fλ, E₀/B₀ = c, I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, and spectrum classification λ = c/f, evaluation yields Visible light, illustrating EM wave transverse nature and Maxwell's displacement current concept.
