The bright-line spectrum produced by the excited atoms of an element contains wavelengths that are?
in the visible light range
Do atoms make up everything?
Everything that is matter is made of atoms (eg. steel, water, wood, air etc.), however when we talk about electricity, this is energy in the form of electrons, also light is not made of atoms. Light particles are known as photons.
What are the characteristics and properties of light?
It's Bright
What does the nuclei of heavy atoms have that light atoms do not have?
The nuclei of heavier atoms simply have more neutrons and protons than do lighter atoms.
What element is sometimes used in flares and flashbulbs because it burns with a bright light white light?
Magnesium is sometimes used in flares and flashbulbs because it burns with a bright white light.
What is the photoelectric effect?
Apexvs. Electrons are knocked off atoms, causing electricity to flow.
The bright-line spectrum produced by the excited atoms of an element contains wavelengths that are?
in the visible light range
Chemical energy is the potential energy of?
electricity or light or bonds between atoms or temperature.
What are the energy transformations of a fluorescent light bulb?
When a fluorescent lamp is turned on, the electricity excites the mercury vapor inside the tube. UV light is produced. The UV light excites the phosphor coating. The phosphorus atoms relax by releasing a visible light. Since the light emitted by the phosphorus atoms is of a spread spectrum (the frequency is not fixed), the light appears whitish. To summarize, electricity is turned into light.
What are 8 major fields in physics?
space light sound energy electricity theories atoms-sometimes
In the photoelectric what happens when light hits the metal?
electrons are knocked off atoms causing electricity to flow
What is a rhyming word pair for a 100-watt bulb?
bright light bright light
In the photoelectric effect what happened when light hits the metal?
electrons are knocked off atoms causing electricity to flow
How is electricity turned into light?
That varies, depending on the technology. In an incandescent light bulb, a wire is heated when electricity passes through it, until it glows. In a fluorescent light bulb, atoms in a gas get into an excited state, and emit light when the electrons fall back to their normal energy level.
Electricity saving slogans?
Saving electricity has become a big concern around the world. Some electricity saving slogans being used are 'Save Today. Survive Tomorrow.', 'Do what's right and turn off the light', and 'The less you burn the more you earn'.
What does bright light do to the pupil?
in bright light the pupil shrinks
Why the light is bright?
a light is bright coz the world is alive if a light is not very bright its coz the world will soon end
