Longwave

Longwave refers to a type of radiation that is all around us, but we can't see it with our eyes. This kind of radiation is longer than the waves that make up visible light, which is why it's called "longwave."

Think of longwave radiation like a long, invisible jump rope. Just like how you can't see the jump rope when it's swinging, you can't see longwave radiation when it's in the air.

Longwave radiation comes from many different sources, like the sun and the earth's atmosphere, and it can have different effects on our environment. For example, it can make things warmer by heating up the air and the ground. It's also important for things like weather patterns and the way plants grow.

Even though we can't see longwave radiation, scientists use special tools to measure it and study its effects. By understanding longwave radiation, we can better understand our world and how it works.
