    Correct me if I am wrong, but atoms emit photons when they jump energy

    Thank you for all the help and I apologize for the late reply (been busy).

    Correct me if I am wrong, but atoms emit photons when they jump energy

    Correct me if I am wrong, but atoms emit photons when they jump energy levels. Right?

    I would assume that is correct.

    High School What is the concept of work in physical science?

    Think of it this way: First understand these: kg = kilograms m = meters s = seconds. Now, force, measured in Newtons (kg/m/s^2) times distance, measured in meters, would give you the new unit of: kg/m^2/s^2 ... For me it always helps to look at the actual units because then you can...

    Graduate Energy levels for a different plancks constant

    I got curious and found this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_wave Those equations would obviously be manipulated as well...

    Graduate Energy levels for a different plancks constant

    Well here's how I thought of it... Think about the equation: λν = c, where c is the speed of light, lambda is Planck's constant, and v is frequency (you probably already knew that). So, if you manipulated Plank's constant, then that equation would obviously increase the speed of light and...

    Graduate Energy levels for a different plancks constant

    How much larger are you talking about? Seeing how Planck's constant is very small in the first place, there are many numbers bigger than it.

    High School Is Fire Considered Matter and What State Does It Belong To?

    I'm sorry, it was working for me not too long ago, but it was just part of my citation.

    High School Is Fire Considered Matter and What State Does It Belong To?

    From my understanding, matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. So rather than asking "if fire is matter," you should probably ask yourself, "what parts of fire make up matter?"* * Is Fire Matter?. (n.d.). NEWTON/ANL Home Page. Retrieved November 25, 2010, from...

    Understanding Energy Transitions in Electromagnetic Radiation: UV vs Infrared

    This was a problem on my Thanksgiving break chemistry homework. Some assistance would be greatly appreciated. Why does electromagnetic radiation in the ulraviolet region represent a larger energy transition than does radiation in the infrared region?

    High School Two cars traveling toward each other question

    It was pretty interesting. And I thought of your orginal comment as a funny statement, so no harm done. haha
