Fluorescence is the property of absorbing radiant energy of _frequency and re-emitting energy of _ frequency in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Correct answer: B. High; low
- A. Low; high
- B. High; low
- C. Low; low
- D. High; high
Explanation
The correct option is B (High frequency...low frequency) because fluorescence involves the absorption of energy of high frequency (short wavelength) and the re-emission of energy of lower frequency (longer wavelength) in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. This shift in frequency results in the phenomenon of fluorescence.

About Electromagnetism
Magnetic flux density and magnetic flux describe the strength of a magnetic field and the field passing through a surface. A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its velocity and may follow circular or helical motion, depending on the angle between velocity and field.
