The document discusses the solar spectrum as a continuous emission spectrum, characterized by diffused glowing bands. It contrasts this with a discontinuous spectrum, which consists of separate spectral lines, exemplified by the atomic spectrum. The passage of sunlight through a prism demonstrates the seven-colored bands of the solar spectrum.

Types of Emission Spectrum
- 1. Solar spectrum is an example of a continuous emission spectrum. A continuous spectrum is a pattern of diffused glowing bands merged into each other. A discontinuous spectrum consists of separate and unmerged spectral lines. When sunlight passes through the prism shows a series of seven- colored diffused bands called the solar spectrum. When the emitted light radiations of exciting substances pass through the spectrograph, we get a series of sharp lines separated by dark bands. The atomic spectrum is an example of it.
