When an electrical charge moves from a higher potential energy to a lower potential energy does what?
when an electric charger moves from higher to lower potential energy, it supplies energy to us but when it is moved from lower to higher potential, we have to supply energy to it........... because every thing has a tendency to move from a point of higher potential to lower potential........
Energy that moves from an area of higher temperature to an area of lower temperature is?
heat energy
How will the distance an object moves be related to it original potential energy?
If it is moved upward, it's potential energy will increase. If it is moved lower, then it's potential energy will decrease.
Is heat energy potential energy or kinetic energy?
It is kinetic energy of individual moving particles. It could be considered potential though, as in: the body with higher temperature has a potential to do work, passing its thermal energy to lower temperature body.AnswerNeither, 'heat' is simply the name we give to energy in transit from a higher temperature to a lower temperature.
What direction does heat trasfer?
Heat moves from a Hot surface to a cold surface in an atempt to acheive thermal equilibrium. This is true in most energy transfers High energy ALWAYS transfers to lower energy.
When an electron in an atom moves from a lower energy state to a higher state?
An electrons moves from lower energy to higher energy when it is excited.
What does the atom do when the electron moves from lower to higher energy level?
it loses energy
When an electrical charge moves from a higher potential energy to a lower potential energy does what?
when an electric charger moves from higher to lower potential energy, it supplies energy to us but when it is moved from lower to higher potential, we have to supply energy to it........... because every thing has a tendency to move from a point of higher potential to lower potential........
When excited electrons return to lower energy levels what is released?
Energy is emitted when an electron moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.
Energy that moves from an area of higher temperature to an area of lower temperature is?
heat energy
If an electron moves from a lower energy level to a higher energy level electromagnetic radiation is what?
"Absorbed"
Heat is a type of what that moves from where there is what?
Heat is a type of energy that moves from an area of high temperature to one of lower temperature.
Which term refers to the energy emitted when an electron moves from a higher energy level to a lower one?
neutron
What kind of spectrum is produced when the electron jumps form a high energy state to a lower energy state?
When an electron moves to a lower energy level, the difference in energy appears in the form of a photon, which the electron emits.
What happens when an electron moves from a high energy level to a lower one?
It absorbs light
What is the kind of spectrum produced when an electron moves from a higher to a lower energy level?
X-Ray
What is a basin of attraction?
A basin of attraction is a set of points from which a dynamical system spontaneously moves to a particular attractor.
