What is the transfer of light energy to particles of matter called?
Absorption
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.
Why is radiant energy kinetic energy?
Light is made up of particles (called photons). They have both kinetic energy and momentum.
What is the transfer of energy as waves moving through space?
Energy transfer by waves or particles of light is called radiation.
________ energy is the total kinetic and potential energy of the particles in an object.?
In microscopic particles it's called internal energy. In macroscopic particles it's called thermodynamic energy.
What is the transfer of light energy to particles of matter called?
Absorption
Is there any energy particle in electric light?

The type of light energy that is stored by certain particles for a period of time is called?
phosphorescence
What is the transfer of energy as waves moving through space?
Energy transfer by waves or particles of light is called radiation.
What light is made up of .?
Light is pure energy in the form of what we call Photons.
