Phosphorescence is similar to what other source of light?
fluorescent.
What is the Major source of light?
hot objects, i.e. incandescencereemission of absorbed light, i.e. fluorescence (immediate), phosphorescence (delayed)relaxation of excited electrons to lower energy levels in atoms, e.g. LEDs, neon lightstriboluminescenceetc.
What is phosphorescent light?
Ever after the light falling on the substance is removed the substance continues glowing. This property is known as phosphorescence.
What is the release of light energy by particles of matter that have absorbed energy?
"phosphorescence"Scattering is the release of light energy by particles of matter that have absorbed energy. The transfer of energy carried by light waves to particles of matter is absorption.
How is light produced by phosphorescence?
In simple terms, phosphorescence is a process in which energy absorbed by a substance is released relatively slowly in the form of light. This is in some cases the mechanism used for "glow-in-the-dark" materials which are "charged" by exposure to light. Unlike the relatively swift reactions in a common fluorescent tube, phosphorescent materials used for these materials absorb the energy and "store" it for a longer time as the processes required to re-emit the light occur less often. I hope that answers your question!
Phosphorescence is similar to what other source of light?
fluorescent.
The ability of a mineral to continue to glow for a period of time once an ultraviolet light source is removed is known as?
phosphorescence
What is the definition of the word phosphoresent?
The word phosphorescence is a material similar to fluorescence but it does not give out light quickly. It does this because it slowly absorbs radiation.
An object that gives off its own light is said to be?
such objects are identified with the suffix -escence where the root word is the element that is responsible for the light. When you have Florine as the source of the light you have fluorescence. When you have phosphorus as the source of the light you have phosphorescence. and so on. theoretically every element could contribute to this.

What is phosphorescence?
Phosphorescence is a process in which the energy absorbed by a substance is released slowly in the form of light - a process used, for example, by glow-in-the-dark materials.
What can glow in dark without a energy source?
There is no energy transformation without energy source. It is that the energy source is not battery. Glow-sticks utilize a chemical energy to generate light so it had internal energy source. Phosphorescence or Glow in the dark stored light energy in the form of electron state and re-emitted the light later. Energy is stored in the molecule and thus its' molecule is the energy source.
What has the author T L Phipson written?
T. L. Phipson has written: 'Phosphorescence, or, the emission of light by minerals, plants, and animals' -- subject(s): Luminescence, Phosphorescence

The type of light energy that is stored by certain particles for a period of time is called?
phosphorescence
Why does a diamond glow blue under UV light?
The UV wavelength becomes visible based on flaws in the carbon lattice structure. As well, once the light is removed, some diamonds emit a phosphorescence that helps identify the exact source of the stone.
How does phosphorescent effect diamond?
I think you mean "phosphorescence" not phosphorescent. Actually a diamond doesn't react WITH phosphorescence. BUT it can create it's own. After exposing it to UV light (the sun) and putting in a dark room, it can glow itself.
