Around 1700, when Mechanics was made for the first time by Sir Isaac Newton, he said about the nature of the light that it resembles thiny particles. Somewhat latter , around 1865, Maxwell discovered that the Electromagnetic waves have the same speed as the speed of light. From this resemblance he deduced that light should be an Electromagnetic wave. Latter than this, at around 1900, when trying to explain some peculiarities of the Photoelectric effect, Eistein postulated that light behaves like thiny particles (the older Newton Theory from 1700).
Today we say that LIGHT HAS A DUAL CHARACTER. It is also a wave and a particle. In some experiments light behaves like an Electromagnetic wave (diffraction, reflection, refraction), in other experiments light behaves like thiny particles (quanta): the Photoelectric effect and the Compton effect.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

t = 5.05 s

Explanation:

This is a kinetic problem.

a) to solve it we must fix a reference system, let's use a fixed system on the floor where the height is 0 m

b) in this system the equations of motion are

y = v₀ t + ½ g t²

where v₀ is the initial velocity that is v₀ = 0 and g is the acceleration of gravity that always points towards the center of the Earth

e) y = 0 + ½ g t²

t = √ (2y / g)

t = √(2 125 / 9.8)

t = 5.05 s

A point charge q1q1 is held stationary at the origin. A second charge q2q2 is placed at point aa, and the electric potential ene

Yuri [45]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

$U_{a} = 5.4 \times 10^{-8} J$

$W_{/text{a to b}} = -1.9 \times 10^{-8} J$

Electric potential energy ( $U_{b}$ ) = ?

Formula to calculate electric potential energy is as follows.

$U_{b} = U_{a} - W_{/text{a to b}}$

= $5.4 \times 10^{-8} J - (-1.9 \times 10^{-8} J)$

= $7.3 \times 10^{-8} J$

Thus, we can conclude that the electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b is $7.3 \times 10^{-8} J$ .

if a current of 0.3 ampere flows through a conductor of resistance of 11.7 ohm's,the voltage across the ends of the conductor is

Gnesinka [82]

Here,

Resistance = 11.7

Ampere = 0.3

Voltage = ?

Now,

R = V/A

11.7 = V/0.3

11.7*0.3 =V

V = 3.51
