The effect of temperature on phosphorescence

AI Thread Summary
Increasing temperature is believed to decrease the lifetime of phosphorescence, though further explanation is not provided. A Google search using the specific problem statement yielded a relevant article from Nature as the second result, which may contain the needed information. The discussion indicates that the inquiry is related to homework, prompting a suggestion to move the thread to a general technical forum if it's not school-related. Participants express interest in verifying the search results and finding answers. The Nature article is recommended for further reading to clarify the effects of temperature on phosphorescence.

What effect does heat have on a substance with phosphorescence properties?
Relevant Equations

I had read somewhere that as the temperature increases, its lifetime decreases. But there was no further explanation. Of course, I don't know if it's true yet.

I did a Google search using your Problem Statement ('What effect does heat have on a substance with phosphorescence properties?'), and the 2nd hit gave the direct answer. Can you try that same search?

Also, is this really a schoolwork question or just something you were wondering about? I can move your thread to the general technical forums if it's not for schoolwork.

Did Google really give a direct answer?! I tried but failed. I'd better try again.
No, this is a homework.:smile:

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
