What objects give light in the home?
Lamps of various kinds (ceiling lamps, standard lamps, desk lamps, table lamps, etc.); also, candles, torches, TV and (most) computer screens, LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes; e.g. the power light on a TV or computer), and anything that gets hot enough to glow, so the heating elements of electric cookers and ovens and some electric heaters also fit into this category. You could include luminous objects like the luminous (sometimes radioactive) paint on the hands of some analogue clocks. Oh, and of course the Sun as well - it probably provides drastically more light than any other source in most homes. I guess other stars also contribute, but not so much that you'd notice. Although whether these celestial objects even count as answers to your question depends on exactly what you mean by 'give light in the home.' I can't think of any others. Hope this helps :)
Is there ever light on Io?
Yes. Io gets light from the sun and reflected light from Jupiter.
How does a star get its own light?
A star gets its light from nuclear fusion. Hydrogen atoms become helium atoms producing light and heat.
How does light behave when it is reflected?
It gets reflected and starts to turn a different direction.
What is the difference between the light from the sun and light from the moon?
The sun produces its own light when it transforms hydrogen into helium. The moon gets its light from the sun. It doesn't produce light. The brightness that we see on the moon is a reflection of the sunlight.
How hot is the average tanning lamp?
The average temperature of a tanning bed gets to be around 100 degrees fahrenheit. Depending on whether you are using UVA or UVB lamps they can control how fast you tan and how dark you become.
What type of light build glows when a filament inside it gets hot?
Electric lamps having incandescent filaments.
What turns the street light on and off?
Most street lamps have a sensor to trigger it on and off. When it gets dark, the light turns on. When it's light, it turns on. Lasers can turn them off at night because the beam is so bright.
What energy is being emitted from a flashlight?
The chemical energy stored in batteries gets transformed sets into electrical energy through the wires. This then gets transformed into light energy that you see.
How is solar energy made useable?
Solar energy is powered by light emitted by the sun. The sun gets it's energy from nuclear fusion at it' score.
Why did you burn so quickly in the tanning bed?
The wavelength in the emitted radiation on a tanning bed are more conducive to burning, in your case, then the wavelengths you would see under the natural lighting of your area. IN a tanning bed you can get tan in 10 min what would take you a hr in the sun... The reason being that the lights are bright and hot and surround you and are very close to you... What is happening while you are tanning is you are literally being cooked from the inside out... so think of a tanning bed as a giant oven. That is why you should not tan for too long or else you can die... I love my tanning bed... If you have one and plan on tanning daily you want to start of with a few min a day then after a few days go up a few more min and so on that way your body gets used to it... If you just go in there after not tanning in a while and tan for lets say 20 - 30 min your more likely to have a sun burn rather than a tan and it is more dangerous as well.
What type of radiation is emitted from iron when it is extremely hot?
Electromagnetic radiation in the form of thermal radiation is emitted as any substance, including iron, gets hot.
What type of radiation is emitted from hot iron when it is extremely hot?
Electromagnetic radiation in the form of thermal radiation is emitted as any substance, including iron, gets hot.
What is tanning effect?
Tanning is a result of exposure to sun rays. When skin gets exposure to UV rays melanin production increases. There are number of methods to remove tan, but it can take long.
What are 2 examples of a chemical change?
Light emitted, reaction gets hot/cold, precipitate formed, a gas is evolved, or a pH change
Why light bulb is suitable for thermoplastics?
Lower temperature thermoplastic materials are not used in an incandescent light bulb. An incandescent light bulb gets to the temperature of 225 to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (107 to 177 degrees centigrade) so the thermoplastics materials must operate at those temperatures without deformation. Led lamps do not get hotter than 165 degrees Fahrenheit or 74 degrees Centigrade. Led lamps can be used with most thermoplastic materials.
Does tanning lotion gets bad?
no unless its like been sitting in one spot for the past 6 years
