Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation is a form of ____
A
Matter
B
Energy
C
Visible Light
D
Water
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is the cooled remnant of the first light that could ever travel freely throughout the Universe. This ‘fossil’ radiation, the furthest that any telescope can see, was released soon after the ‘Big Bang’. Scientists consider it as an echo or ‘shockwave’ of the Big Bang.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cosmic background radiation is captured by an antenna. The signal from the antenna is amplified and converted into a lower frequency by an electrostatic electron multiplier and high voltage power supply whereby cosmic background radiation is converted into electricity.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cosmic microwave background radiation is the faint remnant glow of the big bang. This false color image, covering about 2.5 percent of the sky, shows fluctuations in the ionized gas that later condensed to make superclusters of galaxies.

Detailed explanation-4: -The energy density of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is 4.19×10−14J/m3.
