Strictly speaking; photons are never formed ... they are not material objects.

Rather, they are "packets" (quanta) of energy.

Whenever energy is being transferred through a distance they are said to exist, but its just energy travailing.

How is a photon formed?

A photon is described as having light energy. Photons are constantly in motion, and if radiation is involved, the photon can be destroyed. In 1926, photons were coined as a theory of light.


What are the products of the light reaction and how they formed?

ydrogen (in the form of NADPH). Both are formed when the water molecule is split by photons of light in the photosystems of the light reaction.


What is the process by which new stars are formed?

Fusion of Hydrogen into Helium giving off light (photons) and nutrinos.


When did Theodore Maiman invent the first light bulb?

In 1960, Theodore Maiman invented the laser while working at Hughes Research Laboratory. The laser emitted photons that struck other photons and generated more photons. The set up allowed for a systematic emission of photons, and after gaining ample intensity they formed a consistent beam of light.

Shadows are formed when light source is?

shadows are formed because the light particles (or photons as they are known scientifically) can't pass through a material, this causes them to be shown as a dark area behind the object

Pretty sure it is photons.....


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


Do fire flames make photons?

Photons are pieces of light. If you see a light, then there are photons.
