Light Emission. Re-emission phosphorescence and fluorescence are examples of processes that cause light to be emitted. When the electrons of an atom are excited to a higher energy level, they emit a quantum of light (photon) as the electron falls back to a lower energy level.

A lot of things can happen, depending on the specific circumstances. The released energy can be released as sound, light, or heat, among other things.

What is the release of light energy by particles of matter that have absorbed energy?

"phosphorescence"Scattering is the release of light energy by particles of matter that have absorbed energy. The transfer of energy carried by light waves to particles of matter is absorption.


In which state have the particles absorbed the most heat?

Particles have absorbed the most heat energy in the gas state.


Light spreads as an electromagnetic wave that can be created or absorbed only in discrete bundles of energy or particles called?

Quantums of energy, or quanta.


What is the release of energy by particles of matter that have absorbed extra energy called?

Radiation. Different levels of energy dictate the type of radiation that is emitted. Extremely excited particles might emit visible light or even x-rays while particles that are not very excited might emit weak radio waves. This range from weak radiation to strong radiation is called the electromagnetic spectrum.


What is the energy pathway for an fluorescent source?

Electrical energy- Energy is then absorbed by mercury particles-ultra violet energy-energy absorbed by phosphor particles-visible light energy. This is what I found in my science textbook hopefully it helps.Thumbs up if it did.


What is it called when absorbed light energy is released by matter?

Example for light energy is absorbed or released, Heat is released and absorbed, electrical energy absorbed or released...


Where do the photons that are absorbed go when they are absorbed by the solution?

Photons absorbed by a solution "disappear" and the energy they brought with them is transferred into the solution. That energy appears in the "activity" of the atoms, molecules and/or ions in the solution. The kinetic energy of these particles will increase because of the added energy.


What does a liquid become when its particles have absorbed enough energy to escape the surface?

What is total potential and kinetic energy of the particles in an object called?

In microscopic particles it's called internal energy. In macroscopic particles it's called thermodynamic energy.


What energy transformation in solar panel?

In a silicon solar cell, light energy (a photon of energy >~ 1.1eV) is absorbed in silicon and the energy absorbed excites an electron-hole pair so charge particles are formed. If there is an electric field, the charge particles will separate and an electric current occurs.
