Why does bone absorb more photons at the energies used for diagnostic x-rays?
Because it's denser than the surrounding soft tissues.
How do electrons gain in energy in photosystem 1?
they absorb photons from sunlight
Is it possible for an atom to absorb or emit 1 ½ photons?
No, because there is no such thing as half a photon.
Can proton absorb energy?
yes proton can absorb gamma ray photons and some xray photons depending on the internal configuration of the proton
How do electrons gain energy in photosystem I?
They absorb photons.
How can you can increase or decrease the energy possessed by electrons?
Electrons can absorb photons and gain energy, and they can emit photons and lose energy.
What is the Substance that increases urine of untreated diabetic?
Glucose is high in the urine of an untreated diabetic. Glucose itself makes the urine hyperosmolar (concentrated with solutes), which in turn makes it absorb extra water from surrounding tissues, which creates extra, dilute urine. This in turn dehydrates the surrounding tissues making the patient thirsty.
Explain in what way solar cells are like leaves of plants?
Leaves in a plant have light photons whicch absorb the sunlight energy given from the sun . The solar cells are like the light photons and they too absorb sunlight energy
Electrons can only absorb photons that have energy equal to what?
difference in energy between two levels
How does light create the colors you see?
You and your clothes absorb some of the photons, creating the colors you see.
Can the black body absorb the heat from the surrounding?
Yes.
Why do black clothes feel hotter than white clothes on sunny days?
Black clothes absorb more of the suns energy while white absorbs less. Since this energy is in the form of heat to us darker clothes feel hotter. EX) The sun emits photons of light. these photons have a characteristic wavelength to each color: blue green yellow red.....Black clothes absorb wavelengths of light from the sun that dont make up the black color, meaning they dont take in the black wavelength photons, just absorb the colors that dont make black color, like red and yellow. White clothes do not absorb any photons of the visible spectrum so they emit all the photons of light. Since they dont absorb the light energy from the sun they dont get as hot. But will still heat up but from the radiation of the sun.
