What does the light energy from a candle flame convert to when it’s blown out?
Runner asked:
Energy isn’t lost, it always changes into kinetic, light, heat or chemical energy of some sort, so what does the light energy from a blown out candle convert to? A burning candle obviously gives off heat and smoke (chemical) as the wick and wax burn, but what about the light at the point of going out?
