10.2 eV ??
En = 13.6(1 - 1/n2)
So. a transition from the second energy level to ground state seems indicated if you mean electron volts. ( eV )
En = 13.6(1 - 1/22)
En = 13.6(3/4)
= 10.2 eV

Could an atom emit one photon of blue light after absorbing only one photon of red light?
No, it could not. A blue photon carries more energy than a red photon, since the blue photon's frequency is higher. That means one red photon wouldn't deliver enough energy to the atom to give it the energy to emit a blue photon.
What do light waves contain?
Light waves have electromagnetic energy. Could be considered as quantum of energy with an expression E = h v. v is the frequency of light wave. h - Planck's constant. E - the energy possessed by the quantum. This quantum is also known as photon
How did Niel bohrs theory help with the advances of science?
Bohr made fundamental contribution to understanding atomic structure and quantum physics. For example, he concieved the principle of complementarity: that items could be seperately analyzed as having several contradictory properties.
Could you emit the same amount of light energy per second which must emit more photons per second a source of red light or a source of blue light?
Red light has less energy per photon than blue light, so to get the same energy we would need more red photons.
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.

No, it could not. A blue photon carries more energy than a red photon, since the blue photon's frequency is higher. That means one red photon wouldn't deliver enough energy to the atom to give it the energy to emit a blue photon.
Is light emitted when an electron makes a transition to a lower energy level?
No, as energy is absorbed. When the reverse happens, the higher state to lower state, the electron is returning to its lower energy level ground state and energy is released in the form of a photon.
What could be considered an energy particle?
Particles that exhibit wave- particle duality are considered high energy particles. One example is a photon. There is debate about whether these are real particles.
What do light wave do?
Light waves have electromagnetic energy. Could be considered as quantum of energy with an expression E = h v. v is the frequency of light wave. h - Planck's constant. E - the energy possessed by the quantum. This quantum is also known as photon

How is a line in a graph related to energy?
There is no need for the line to be related to energy. The line in the graph could represent height against age of adults. No relation to energy, I'd suggest.
How would a single photon be converted or transformed over and over again until it makes a wind up toy go?
Simple - it could never happen. An individual photon, no matter how energetic, has enough energy by millions of trillions to move anything like even the smallest toy. from Beano in the UK
Is it posible for a fluorescent material to emit radiation the ultraviolet region after observing visible light explain?
not possible, as visible light photons have less energy and ultraviolet photons need more energy. Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. So by conservation principle ultraviolet photon as they fall on fluorescent material could give out less energetic light photons, but the converse is not possible.

It could represent pain because they sting you. :)

What is the amplitude of the visible light spectrum?
It is not meaningful to talk about "amplitude of the visible light spectrum". One might think that more intense light would mean greater amplitude of the light wave, but it just means more photons. "Visible light" is made up of photons. A single photon has a certain quantifiable energy, and that energy is discussed in terms of frequency or wavelength. A photon with low frequency (towards the red end of the visible light spectrum, for instance) is less energetic than a photon with high frequency (towards the blue end and beyond). For all intents and purposes, the amplitude of a photon wave-packet could be said to be of "unit amplitude", the amplitude of light.
