Air Force, facing fighter pilot shortage, offers retention bonuses of up to $225,000. The Air Force estimates that without a serious recruiting effort, it will be short 700 fighter pilots eight years from now -- so it is offering retention bonuses of up to $225,000 to stay in the service for an additional nine years. The deadline to respond to this unusual help wanted ad is Sept 30.
A community for students. Which energy transition may take place in the atom if its electron has absorbed a photon? A.n = 5 to n = 1 B.n = 3 to n = 2 C.n = 5 to n = 2 D.n = 1 to n = 3 E.n = 3 to n = 1 Help me!!! if the electron ABSORBS a photon, that means it must GAIN energy. when electrons RELEASE photons, they drop in energy, which is why we see colors in an emission test.
When an electron absorbs a photon of light, it gains energy. This is quantized. When an electron gains energy, it moves to a higher energy level. Thus giving the equation hf=m â¦ cv. Therefore, as more energy is given to the electron, it gets 'excited' and maintains the energy by moving to a higher energy leve.
