During de-excitation, an excited atom or nucleus releases energy in the form of photons (light) or particles (such as alpha or beta particles) to return to a lower energy state. This process can occur spontaneously or be triggered by collisions with other particles.

An atom that undergoes excitation and de-excitation emits?

An atom that undergoes excitation and de-excitation emits photons of light. When an electron in an atom absorbs energy and moves to a higher energy level (excitation), it eventually returns to its original state (de-excitation) and emits a photon of light corresponding to the energy difference between the two levels.


If the excitation of generator changes what happens to the terminal voltage?

By Decreasing the excitation voltage the terminal voltage will decrease and similarly by increasing the excitation voltages the terminal voltage will also increases.


What happens if excitation fails in parallel oprating generator?

when excitation fails,Reactive power will be supplied by the system to which the generator is connected and generator will work as induction generator and its speed will rise a little. generator which was in over excitation mode will work in underexcitation.but there is under excitation limit which should not be reached so we should detect loss of excitation and trip generator


What part of the IL produce the light radiant energy?

The electrons in the IPL, or even the noble gas ions in the PLs of the cable, can produce light radiation through excitation and de-excitation processes.

What is meant by excitation frequency?

Excitations frequency is the frequence of the electron making a quantum spring from a higher level to an lower. In cemical reactions the excitations happens alle the time, an it happens in a frequence.


How do you calculate excitation frequency?

Excitation frequency can be calculated as the reciprocal of the excitation period, which is the time interval between two consecutive excitations. The formula is: Excitation frequency = 1 / Excitation period. Alternatively, if you know the excitation waveform (e.g., sine wave), you can determine the excitation frequency from the period of that waveform.


What best describes the events of excitation in excitation-contraction coupling?

cross bridge formation "Excitation-contraction coupling" connects muscle fiber excitation to the muscle fiber contraction (cross bridge formation). During contraction, myosin heads form cross bridges many times-with each cross bridge generating a small amount of tension in the muscle fiber.


Why does cupric nitrate burn green?

Cupric nitrate burns green because copper ions emit a green flame when they are heated. This phenomenon is due to the excitation and subsequent de-excitation of electrons in the copper atoms, producing green light.


What causes an electron to change energy levels within an atom?

An electron changes energy levels within an atom when it absorbs or emits a specific amount of energy, typically in the form of light or heat. This process is known as electron excitation or de-excitation.


What are the Applications of excitation transfer theory?

Excitation theory is a misattribution of arousal.


What is a type of light emission that relies upon a delay between excitation and de-excitation providing an afterglow?

You are talking about a glow-in-the dark material. It is called phosphorescent. The same idea, light being absorbed and re-emitted at a different frequency - has two main types. If it happens immediately, it is "fluorescent" (think highlighters in a black light) If there is a delay, it is "phosphorescence." Both effects and the delay in the second, are the result of quantum mechanics.
