Explain how photoelectric effect confirms particle nature of radation?
The photoelectric effect is a quantum electronic phenomenon in which electrons are emitted from matter after the absorption of energy from electromagnetic radiation such as x-rays or visible light.
Which lamps has the maximum efficiency?
Light Emitting Diodes(LEDs) are the more most efficient light source because nearly 100% of the energy that is emitted by a LED is light, only a small proportion of the energy is heat. The high efficiency of LEDs has made them extremely popular in a lot of lighting apparatus ranging from basic torches to the back lighting of many flat panel displays ranging from all sizes.
Only a small percentage of the electric energy fed into a light bulb is transformed into light what happens to the remaining energy?
It appears as heat
When is energy gained and when is it lost?
In olden days scientists considered energy to flow continuously and so any amount of fraction is possible. But Planck imagined in a revolutionary way that energy is not coming out or getting absorbed continuously but only in small packets. That packet is named as quanta which has energy given by hv, here h is Planck's constant and v is the frequency of radiation. So 1/2 hv is not possible but n * hv where n is an integer.
Where does the energy for a light bulb come from?
it come from the energy source in the middle of the light bulb he clearly asked what type of energy is it?!
What is the small term for the small packets of energy emitted from light?
Photons
What is the term for the small packets of energy emitted light?
Photons
What is the term for the small packets of energy emitted for light?
Photons
What is the term for the small packets of energy emitted from light?
Pretty sure it is photons.....
What is the term for small pockets of energy emitted from light?
Photon.

Does gravity exist on the inside of a beam of light?
light is made up of small energy packets known as photons which are massless and as gravity depends on the mass of the particle therefore there is no gravitational force applied on or applied by a beam of light.
What is thermal light and electrical energy is at the microscopic level?
Not quite sure what you mean with "thermal light".* Light, and other electromagnetic waves, come in small "packets", or particles, called "photons" in this case. * Electrical energy is carried by charged particles, for example electrons, holes, or ions.
HOW Solar energy is measured?
in the terms of photons because energy comes from sun in small packets called photons.
What is quanta of energy?
Quanta of energy, according to Planck's quantum theory, are small packets of energy which is transferred from one body to another, They are how the energy is present in nature according to Max planck.
What type of nuclear radiation is a high energy light?
It is radiation which has had some energy converted into it, most probably after a nuclear fission/fusion reaction when a lot of energy is released, so some of that energy goes into the radiation.
Can light from stars be turned into energy?
Light from the stars is energy. However, the amount of energy that this light accounts for is too small to be of any use.
