Detailed explanation-1: -In the case of the Sun, light is emitted at almost all energies in the visible spectrum, which is why you see all of the colors in the Sun’s spectrum. Clearly, this is not a continuous spectrum; however, it still represents visible radiation that has been separated into its constituent colors.

Detailed explanation-2: -The spectrum starts with red light, with a wavelength of 700 nanometers (7, 000 angstroms), at the top. It spans the range of visible light colors, including orange and yellow and green, and ends at the bottom with blue and violet colors with a wavelength of 400 nm (4, 000 angstroms).

Detailed explanation-3: -A continuous spectrum contains every wavelength between the wavelength on which the spectrum starts and the wavelength on which the spectrum ends. A discontinuous spectrum is a spectrum that contains gaps, holes, or breaks in terms of the wavelengths that it contains.

Detailed explanation-4: -The continuous (as distinct from the line) spectrum of the Sun is produced primarily by the photodissociation of negatively charged hydrogen ions (H−)-i.e., atoms of hydrogen to which an extra electron is loosely attached.

Detailed explanation-5: -rays spectrum is continuous among and rays spectrum.
