What is the particle of energy that makes up light called?

The particle of energy that makes up light is called a photon. Photons are massless, electrically neutral particles that carry electromagnetic radiation.


What kind of energy makes the light bulb light up?

Electricity is the energy source that powers a light bulb and makes it light up. When electricity flows through the filament in a light bulb, it generates heat and light, resulting in illumination.


What lights up?

Light is energy, so energy makes up light. Example- the sun burns it's gases full of potential energy to create heat energy and light energy.


What is a quantum of light energy called?

A quantum of light energy is called a photon. Photons are the fundamental particles that make up light and exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties.


What makes up heat energy?

friction, light and collision


What in the solar wind makes the Aurora Australis light up?

solar wind is made up of charged particles, theses when forced to the north and south poles excite the particles of the upper atmosphere, when theses De-excite, they release the energy in the form of light energy. the color of the light varies depending on what particle in the atmosphere such as oxygen or hydrogen was excited.


Is light made of matter?

Light is energy, and energy is not matter.


What is energy that is carried by light?

Energy carried by light is called electromagnetic energy. It is made up of particles called photons that have both wave-like and particle-like properties. This energy can be absorbed by materials and converted into other forms of energy, such as heat or electricity.


What are light quanta?

Light quanta are discrete packets of energy known as photons that make up electromagnetic radiation, including visible light. These particles exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, and are the basic unit of light energy.


What is the sun's energy made up of?

the suns energy comes from a hydrogen particle smashing in to another hydrogen particle and creates helium, however during this proses it causes heat and light energy and that is what the suns energy is made of


What energy is light made up of?

Natural light comes from sun due to fusion energy in sun. Artificial light either comes directly from fossil fuels or comes from electricity generated by fossil fuels, renewable energy, and/or nuclear energy.


What is the particle model of light?

The particle model of light entails that light consists of tiny packages of energy called photons. Because light is an electromagnetic wave the model is a part of the general model for electromagnetism. This model is called Quantum Electrodynamics, or QED in short.
