Difference between Apparent magnitude and Electromagnetic radiation

Apparent magnitude vs. Electromagnetic radiation

The apparent magnitude of a celestial object is a number that is a measure of its brightness as seen by an observer on Earth. In physics, electromagnetic radiation (EM radiation or EMR) refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons) of the electromagnetic field, propagating (radiating) through space-time, carrying electromagnetic radiant energy.

Similarities between Apparent magnitude and Electromagnetic radiation

Apparent magnitude and Electromagnetic radiation have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Black body, Human eye, Infrared, Inverse-square law, Monochrome, Planck's law, Star, Sun, Ultraviolet, Visible spectrum.

Black body

A black body is an idealized physical body that absorbs all incident electromagnetic radiation, regardless of frequency or angle of incidence.

Human eye

The human eye is an organ which reacts to light and pressure.

Infrared

Infrared radiation (IR) is electromagnetic radiation (EMR) with longer wavelengths than those of visible light, and is therefore generally invisible to the human eye (although IR at wavelengths up to 1050 nm from specially pulsed lasers can be seen by humans under certain conditions). It is sometimes called infrared light.

Inverse-square law

The inverse-square law, in physics, is any physical law stating that a specified physical quantity or intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source of that physical quantity.

Monochrome

Monochrome describes paintings, drawings, design, or photographs in one color or values of one color.

Planck's law

Planck's law describes the spectral density of electromagnetic radiation emitted by a black body in thermal equilibrium at a given temperature T. The law is named after Max Planck, who proposed it in 1900.

Ultraviolet

Ultraviolet (UV) is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength from 10 nm to 400 nm, shorter than that of visible light but longer than X-rays.

Apparent magnitude and Electromagnetic radiation Comparison

Apparent magnitude has 159 relations, while Electromagnetic radiation has 232. As they have in common 10, the Jaccard index is 2.56% = 10 / (159 + 232).
