Is light emitted in waves?

Yes, but it is also, at the same time, emitted in particles (photons) too. This is called the "wave-particle duality" of light.


Particles of light are called what?

Light particles are called Photons.


What particles of light called?

Light particles are called Photons.


What best shows that light behaves like particles?

The photoelectric effect is the best evidence that light behaves like particles. When light of high enough frequency strikes a metal surface, it causes electrons to be emitted with discrete energies, which can only be explained if light comes in discrete packets or particles called photons.


The process in which energy is emitted as particles or waves?

The process in which energy is emitted as particles or waves is called radiation. This can involve the release of electromagnetic radiation, such as light or heat, or the emission of particles, such as alpha or beta particles from radioactive materials. Radiation plays a crucial role in various natural and artificial processes, including nuclear reactions and the behavior of stars.


What particles in an atom are light particles?

Electrons are the lighter particles of an atom. If you are referring to the phenomena of light in electromagnetic radiation the particles are called photons. They are not part of an atom as such but can be emitted or absorbed by atoms under certain circumstances.


What is electromagnetic radiation emitted tiny packets called?

Electromagnetic radiation emitted in tiny packets is called photons. Photons are the fundamental particles that make up electromagnetic radiation. They have both wave-like and particle-like properties.


What type of light do you emit, and what is the term for the heat that is also emitted along with it?

The type of light you emit is called incandescent light, and the term for the heat emitted along with it is called infrared radiation.


What is particles of light called?

photon


What are the different forms of emitted light called?

fluorescence


What is the matter emitted by the sun called?

Various things are emitted byt the sun - light and heat are the best known but other electromagnetic waves such as gamma rays are also emitted. Theoretically gravitons are sent out too


What process occurs when light is emitted in directions?

Scattering. The location inside the Earth where an earthquake begins is called the focus.
