Title: Anyone know about photons?
Post by: Java on November 19, 2007, 06:40:45 PM
If you do...

Will a photon appear as something bright or dark on a spectrum?

I thought it was bright since it's a light particle and all but I don't know...

Spectrums are different wavelengths traveled by photons. :)

Oops. That wasn't the real question.

I'll just write it word for word.

"How many times were photons of radiation emitted from excited helium atoms to form the spectrum shown below? Explain your answer.

Then it gives me a spectrum of pretty much black and white stripes.


What I need to know is...Is a photon being emitted on the spectrum a black or white strip?

Oh, reading a spectrum. :O Should be the white.
