What is the difference between energy and light?
Light is one of many forms of energy. Heat, motion, sound, potential energy (which can be mechanical, chemical, or nuclear) and many other types of energy also exist.
Where is the energy form a light bulb produced?
in a power station, which usually converts chemical potential energy into electrical energy, which supplies potential difference and drives current.
What does the amount of energy released per charge depend on?
The amount of energy released per charge depends on the potential difference (voltage) across the circuit. This is determined by the difference in electrical potential energy between the positive and negative terminals, which enables the flow of electrons and the release of energy in the form of heat, light, or other forms of energy.
What is the difference between the energy of ultra violet light and the energy visible light?
Ultraviolet light has a greater energy per photon.
How does a battery convert energy?
The two sides, the anode and the cathode contain opposite charges. The difference between the charges determines the potential of the battery. The potential can be described as stored energy, called electric potential energy. When the anode and cathode are connected by a circuit, the difference between the charges diminishes, which means this stored energy is being lost somehow. Different loads can harness this energy and convert it to another. Electric motors use magnetic fields induced by the electric current, which means that the electric potential energy is being converted into magnetic potential energy, which is immediately converted into kinetic energy, while incandescent light bulbs use electrical resistance of a filament to convert the electric potential, into a combination of infrared and visible light energy.
What is the Difference between the thunderstorms and lightning?
Lightning is light energy, or electromagnetic energy. And thunder is sound energy.
Differences between LED and photodiode?
The Simplest Difference is that LED emits Light, & Photodiode converts Light energy into electrical Energy
Is potential energy what a light bulb uses?
NopeNo, potential energy would be, for instance, a spring that is compressed. It could cause motion if released. It is stored energy. The light bulb uses electrical energy, which it converts to light and heat energy. potential energy is like when you wind up a torch or a radio
Is a burning match potential energy?
Burning coal has chemical potential energy, because the energy is stored up in the bonds between the carbon molecules, and when the coal is burned, the stored energy is released and transformed into heat, light, and even sometimes sound energy.
Why do electrons emit light when they fall down to their ground state?
When electrons fall down to their ground state, they release energy in the form of photons of light. This is because the energy difference between the higher energy state the electron was in and the ground state is emitted as light. The wavelength of the light emitted depends on the specific energy difference between the two states.
What kind of energy given out by light bulbs and candles?
Light bulbs give out light and heat energy, while candles give out light and heat energy through a chemical reaction between the wax and a wick.
Why does the reaction between sodium and chlorine gives out a lot of heat and light?
Because the potential chemical energy of the product is much less than the potential chemical energy of the reactants. Since energy is indestructible, it is converted to heat and light.
