yes. when a glow in the dark material "charges" photons are hitting it making the electrons move to a different energy shell. when that electron returns to its native level it releases radiation we see as light. what colour the light is dependent on the molecule the electron was a part of not the kind of light that hit it making it move up in the first place.

In which material would light bend the the least?

Light would bend the least in a material with a low refractive index, such as air or a vacuum. This is because the speed of light is fastest in these materials, causing minimal deviation as it passes through.


What happens when light hits a transparent material?

Even though you can see through a material..i.e. it is transparent...it may have color and a physicist will want to know this information. What type of light is hitting this material is important to include in your question as well as the type of transparent material. What type of light? (and the strength ...source would be great) What type of material? What color is the material? Answer: It allows light to pass through a material


Why photons are electrically neutral?

They are only neutral' in the sense of having no charge - they do have an electrical field. If they had charge, they would also have rest mass, because the charge represents energy and energy and mass are the same thing. So they would not travel at the speed of light. At least classically, it is not possible to have a charged massless particle.


Is it possible to see without light?

No, it is not possible to see without light. Our eyes rely on light to be able to perceive and interpret the world around us. Without light, there would be nothing for our eyes to detect and no visual information to process.


What is the velocity of light in a material such as alcohol with a refractive index of 1.36?

The velocity of light in a material is given by the speed of light in a vacuum divided by the refractive index of the material. In this case, the velocity of light in alcohol with a refractive index of 1.36 would be about 220,000 km/s.

What describes a material's ability to reflect light or shine?

The material's Luster (lustrous would mean it reflects light) (dull is the opposite)

Will a dead car battery charge itself?

No, why would you even think that is possible?


How many solar panels are needed to light a street light?

One would easily be enough, but it would have charge a battery during the day to power the light at night.

How much should you charge to iron a shirt?

Charge for ironing a shirt, would depend on the type of material, special products used and time taken. The charge could be from $3 to $10.


Is it possible to invent a machine that would turn inorganic material into food?

In theory, if you could put the proper nutrients into it, it would be possible to invent that machine.


What causes the Charge System light to come on?

A bad alternator/generator would cause a 'no charge' in the system, which would drain the battery while running. Also a shor tin the wiring may cause a false indicator light.


In the absence of darkness how it would be possible to perceive light?

you can't!!
