Question

Difference between emitter and absorbers

Answer 1

Answer/Explanation:

Shiny surfaces are poor absorbers and emitters (but they are good reflectors of infrared radiation). If two objects made from the same material have identical volumes, a thin, flat object will radiate heat energy faster than a fat object. This is one reason why domestic radiators are thin and flat.

Answer 2

An emitter allows things to pass through a surface from inside to outside.

An absorber allows something to pass through it from the outside to the inside.
