Asset Overview

A Crookes radiometer can provide a quantitative measurement of electromagnetic radiation intensity. When light rays hit the vanes of a radiometer, the black sides of the vanes absorb the rays better than the white sides. This causes the black side to become hotter than the white side (thermal energy). When molecules in the air hit the vanes heat energy is transferred to them.
