Alex has a type of rock called calcite, that sometimes glows. He puts the calcite under a desk lamp but the calcite does not glow. Then he puts it under an ultraviolet lamp and the calcite glows. Why does ultraviolet light make the calcite glow when light from the desk lamp does not?
Because ultraviolet light carries energy, and light from the desk lamp does not.
Because ultraviolet light pulls energy out of the calcite, and light from the desk lamp does not.
Because calcite can take in energy from ultraviolet light but not from the light from the desk lamp.
Because ultraviolet light carries glowing molecules, and light from the desk lamp does not.
