Resource summary

Infrared radiation
  1. All objects are continually emitting and absorbing infrared radiation
    1. The hotter an object is, the more radiation it radiates in a given time
      1. Dark, matt surfaces are good absorbers and good emitters of infrared radiation
        1. Light and shiny surfaces are poor absorbers and poor emitters of infrared radiation
          1. Light and shiny surfaces are also good reflectors of infrared radiation
