Is light absorbed in physical change?

Heat absorption is a physical change. It can cause a change in state and/or a temperature increase, but the matter that is absorbing the heat does not change. It retains all of its physical and chemical properties that it had before absorbing the heat.


Is lighting a match from a matchbox a physical change?

Yes, lighting a match from a matchbox is a chemical change, not a physical change. When the match is struck, the chemicals on the match head react to produce heat, light, and a flame. This transformation is a chemical reaction, not just a change in physical state.


What is a physical change in matter caused by a loss or gain of heat called?

A physical change in matter caused by a loss or gain of heat is called a thermal change.


What is a physical scientist working with when studying heat and light?

A physical scientist studying heat and light is typically working with the principles of thermodynamics and electromagnetism. They may investigate how heat is transferred and how light behaves as an electromagnetic wave, as well as the interactions between heat and light in various materials and environments.


Is a filament of a light bulb glows when an electric current flows through it is a chemical change?

It is a physical change brought about by the exitation of molecules producing heat and light. A general rule of thumb is that a physical change can be repeated on an article and chemical change cannot. Remove the current from a filament and it is still a filament.

What does not signal a chemical change color change or production of light and heat or production of gas or change in state?

A change in state does not necessarily indicate a chemical change. Melting, freezing, boiling, or condensing of a substance are physical changes that do not involve a change in the chemical composition of the substance.


Is production of heat or light a physical change?

The release of energy can have physical or chemical causes.


Is turning on a flash light a physical change?

It is a physical change because nothing actually changes in the flashlight or surrounding areas. It's just electricity flowing and a light coming on and some heat produced.


When a firecracker explodes giving off light and heat and breaking the wrapper into many pieces is that a physical change chemical change or both?

This is both a physical and chemical change. The explosion involves the release of energy (heat and light), which is a chemical change due to the breaking of chemical bonds. The breaking of the wrapper into many pieces is a physical change as it does not involve any change in the chemical composition of the materials.


Is production of heat or light physical or chemical change?

i think it would be physical because it is still energy.


Is heat conductivity a physical change or chemical change?

The heat conductivity of a substance does not involve changes to its chemistry. Heat conductivity is a physical change and characteristic to a substance.


Is giving off light a physical or chemical change?

I would think it to be a Physical Change. Not chemical.
