Great question. Albert Einstein proved that light acts as both a particle and a wave in his 1905 paper. This is called wave-particle duality.
With quantum mechanics, it is easy to prove that light behaves as both a particle and a wave.
When UV light hits a metal surface, it causes an emission of electrons. This "photoelectric effect" proves how light behaves.
option c...have the waves move thru the vacuum or space
Answer:
-2.83 m/s²
Explanation:
- Initial velocity (u) = 34 m/s
- Final velocity (v) = 17 m/s
- Time taken (t) = 6 seconds
❖ Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with time.
→ a = (v - u)/t
- v denotes final velocity
- a denotes acceleration
- u denotes initial velocity
- t denotes time
→ a = (17 - 34)/6 m/s²
→ a = -17/6 m/s²
<h3>→ Acceleration = -2.83 m/s²</h3>
(Minus sign implies that the velocity is decreasing.)
