The energy from the light is transferred to the material, causing it to vibrate and absorb the light.

What is energy?
In physics, energy is the quantitative quality that is transmitted to the a body or a physical system, and is discernible in the work performed as well as in the form of light and heat. The law of conservation states that although energy can change its form, it cannot be created or destroyed. Energy is indeed a conserved quantity. The International System of Units' (SI's) joule is the measurement unit for energy (J). A moving object's kinetic energy, a solid object's elastic energy, chemical energy caused by chemical reactions, and the potential energy that an object stores (for instance because of its position inside a field) are examples of common forms of energy.

When light falls upon a material that has a natural frequency equal to the frequency of the light, the light will be absorbed by the material. This is due to resonance, which occurs when the frequency of the light matches the natural frequency of the material. The energy from the light is transferred to the material, causing it to vibrate and absorb the light.

If the electron is initially in the ground level, E1=0.625E[infinity]E1=0.625E[infinity], and absorbs a photon, what maximum wav
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

 λ = 3.1824 10-25 m

Explanation:

To release the electron from the power well the absorbed photon electro must be greater than or equal to the energy of the electron in the power well

           

The photon energy is E_photon = 0.625 J

The speed of light is

       c = λ f

         

Let's use Planck's equation

        E = h f

             

We substitute

       E = h c / λ

        λ = h c / E

        λ = 6.63 10-34 3 108 / 0.625

         λ = 3.1824 10-25 m

If the interest rate hasn't changed over the course of 16 years,
then that's pretty convincing evidence to suggest that the loan
has an fixed rate.
