Water molecules do all these at once (try that!), plus some other motions not shown. Each unique motion absorbs a unique frequency (ν) of light in the infrared range. Answer the following questions relating to the cartoon experiment below:

a. What happened to the light that was absorbed by the water?

b. Why are some frequencies (ν) of infrared light transmitted through the water?
