Visualizing Concepts

As shown in the accompanying photograph, an electric stove burner on its highest setting exhibits an orange glow. (a) When the burner setting is changed to low, the burner continues to produce heat but the orange glow disappears. How can this observation be explained with reference to one of the fundamental observations that led to the notion of quanta? (b) Suppose that the energy provided to the burner could be increased beyond the highest setting of the stove. What would we expect to observe with regard to visible light emitted by the burner?
