Why is it difficult to discern the shapes of the object inside a very hot kiln.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
When the object is inside a hot kiln, the object gets heated and thus emit thermal
Conclusion:
The glowing of the hot kiln and the hot object emits continuous wavelength from infrared, visible and ultraviolet portions of the spectrum. So, it is difficult to discern the shapes of the object inside a very hot kiln
