sources of lights

Question 1

what are the 2 types of light sources

Answer 1

1) natural
–> flyer flies

2) genetically engineered

Question 2

luminous vs non-luminous definition?

Answer 2

luminous –> object produces light whether genetically engineered or natural

non-luminous –> does not produce light

Question 3

3 rules of atoms within lights

Answer 3

1) atoms of materials must absorb energy

2) atoms must be considered in a “excited state” —> 3) atoms in the excited state release energy (often in the form of light)

Question 4

light is a form of?

Answer 4

energy

Question 5

what is conduction?

Answer 5

the transfer of energy from particle to particle in SOLIDS

Question 6

what is convection

Answer 6

the transfer of heat by actual movement of warmed matter in LIQUIDS AND GASES

Convection is a process in which heat is transferred through a fluid (like air or water) by the movement of the fluid itself.

Question 7

what is medium?

Answer 7

any physical substances through which energy can be transferred by.

Question 8

The sun, what type of energy does it produced, what is it classified by?

Answer 8

Sun is a type of nuclear energy due to the fact that it goes through fusion (or fuse reactions) therefore producing an abundance of light.

–> solar energy is also another form of heat energy which in transferred by conduction or convection.
