If so, then that means they can cause things to warm up right?
Then turns it into enegy, exites the electrons, and emits another photon of the same frequencycragar said:yes this can happen . The electron can absorb the visible photon.
cragar said:It doesn't necessarily have to re-emit the photon depends on the material.

The relationship between visible light and exciting electrons is that visible light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that can excite electrons. When a photon of visible light interacts with an atom, it can transfer its energy to an electron, causing it to move to a higher energy level.
Visible light excites electrons by transferring its energy to the electrons. This transfer of energy causes the electrons to become excited and move to a higher energy level. The amount of energy transferred depends on the frequency of the light, with higher frequency light having more energy to excite electrons.
Yes, all types of visible light can excite electrons. However, the amount of energy transferred to the electrons may vary depending on the frequency of the light. Higher frequency light, such as blue or violet light, has more energy and can excite electrons more easily than lower frequency light, such as red or orange light.
After being excited by visible light, electrons may either return to their original energy level or continue to move to higher energy levels. If they return to their original energy level, they will release the energy they gained from the light in the form of a photon. If they continue to move to higher energy levels, they may eventually reach a point where they no longer have enough energy to move and will remain in that energy level.
Yes, visible light can excite electrons in all materials. However, the amount of energy needed to excite electrons may vary depending on the material. Some materials, such as metals, have loosely bound electrons that are easier to excite, while other materials, such as insulators, have tightly bound electrons that require more energy to be excited.
