Certain plant molecules are calledpigments are chemically affected by photons of light from the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Electrons within pigment molecules are excited to higher energy levels when bombarded by certain wavelengths of light. This produces an unstable high-energy state that can be harnessed by plants. In this way, energy from the sun powers photosynthesis.
What else can I help you with?
How does magnetism effect gamma radiation?
No. Gamma rays are photons (light particles). Photons are particles with no mass, no charge and no magnetic moment.
Energy of visible light can be measured in organized packets called?
The energy of visible light can be measured in organized packets called photons. These photons have discrete values of energy, meaning there is exact amounts of energy these have, and don't vary in decimal places.
Can photons of light be seen with the naked eye?
Since photons are the basic unit of electromagnetic radiation, and since visible light is electromagnetic radiation, yes, photons within the visible light spectrum can be seen with the naked eye.
How do photons travel outward from a light bulb?
Photons travel outward from a light bulb in all directions due to their wave-particle duality. As the light bulb emits electromagnetic radiation, photons are released and propagate in a straight line until they interact with surfaces or particles. The photons then transfer their energy to these surfaces, allowing us to see the light emitted from the bulb.
Why are the photons that emerge from the Sun's surface visible-light photons and infrared-light photons rather than gamma-ray photons?
Photons do not come in different types like infared-photons etc. they are just the wavelength that the photons are at and nuclear fusion just happens to emit photons at a particular wavelength
When light is emitted as particles it is called?
When light is emitted as particles, it is called photons. Photons are the basic unit of light and have properties of both particles and waves.
What particle in the heated compounds are responsible for the production of the colored light?
In heated compounds, electrons are the particles responsible for the production of colored light. When the compounds absorb energy and become excited, electrons jump to higher energy levels and then release the excess energy as photons of light when they return to their original energy levels. The wavelength of the emitted light determines the color observed.
Particles of light are called?
Photons.
Particles of light are called what?
Light particles are called Photons.
What are individual packets of light called?
Individual packets of light are called photons. Photons are the basic unit of light and do not have mass, allowing them to travel at the speed of light.
What is the term for the small packets of energy emitted from light?
The term for the small packets of energy emitted from light is called photons.
Do fire flames make photons?
Yes, fire flames produce photons as a result of the high temperatures causing atoms and molecules in the flames to emit light energy. These photons are the visible light that we see when a fire burns.
What does light contain?
Light contains energy in the form of the photons of electromagnetic radiation
What are the pieces of light called?
The individual pieces of light are called photons. Photons are the basic unit of light and are a type of elementary particle.
Do plants tast better in natural light or in artifcial light?
Photons of light are photons of light and the most photons per growing day wins the taste prize. Ill posed question.
How do photons travel from a light bulb?
Photons travel outward from a light bulb in all directions.
Discrete packages of light energy are called?
photons
