How does incident light that falls on an object affect the motion of electrons in the atoms of the object?

Physics
1 answer:
KonstantinChe [14]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Incident light makes an electron oscillate. The electrons emit light or absorb the light, collide with other electrons, thereby converting light energy to more internal energy. and convert it to heat.

Light wave of a given frequency is incident on a material with electrons having the same vibrational frequencies, then electrons absorb the energy of the light wave and transform it into vibrational motion.

Why do our eyes see the color red when we look at a tomato?
forsale [732]

Answer:

B. Tomatos reflect red light

Explanation:

The only reason colors exist is because the objects with color reflect all other light except for what they are portrayed as. White reflects all colors, and black absorbs all colors.

Why is the ocean warmer than the air at night
Sliva [168]

You see, during the day the ocean collects heat from the sun. So the air above the ocean get warm at night, but the rest of the air on the land gets cooler because water has the ability to collect energy from the Sun.

A lad, waiting for his friend walks in the sidewalk, in front of her house, from the front door, first, he moves towards the Pos
Andreas93 [3]

His total displacement from his original position is -1 m

We know that total displacement of an object from a position x to a position x', d = final position - initial position.

d = x' - x

If we assume the lad's initial position in front of her house is x = 0 m. The lad then moves towards the positive x-axis, 5 m. He then ends up at x' = 5 m. He then finally goes back 6 m.

Since displacement = final position - initial position, and his displacement is d' = -6 m (since he moves in the negative x - direction or moves back) from his initial position of x' = 5 m.

His final position, x" after moving back 6 m is gotten from

x" - x' = -6 m

x" = -6 + x'

x" = -6 + 5

x" = -1 m

Thus, his total displacement from his original position is

d = final position - initial position

d = x" - x

d = -1 m - 0 m

d = -1 m

So, his total displacement from his original position is -1 m
