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.

Which of the following is not true about the Law of Conservation of Energy?
SVEN [57.7K]

By definition, the law of conservation of energy states that:

Ei = Ef

Where,

Ei: initial energy

Ef: final energy

Therefore, no matter the type of energy, always the final energy is equal to the final energy.

Energy can be transformed into another type of energy. For example, the potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy.

Also, energy is not created, nor destroyed.

Answer:

The following is not true about the Law of Conservation of Energy:
