Question

The surface of the paper is phosphorescent. When light shines on it, some of the energy is absorbed and re-emitted slowly over time. The blue LED causes the surface to glow, but the green LED does not. Would a red LED to cause the surface to glow? Select the best answer from the choices provided. View Available Hint(s) Select the best answer from the choices provided. No Yes

Answer 1

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the hierarchy of wavelength color from minimum wavelength to maximum wavelength is:

`V < I < B < G < Y < O < R;` and

`E \ \alpha \ (1)/(\lambda)`

As a result, blue light has a higher energy level than green and red light.

As a result, the surface glows due to the blue LED. The green LED, on the other hand, would not allow the surface to glow as much as the red LED, which has a lower energy level when compared to the green light. As a result, the red LED would not allow the surface to glow as well.
