Which two ways can light be understood

1 answer:

3 0

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.

4.A 31-cm long conducting wire of 9-g carrying 7- A current is placed in a uniform magnetic field. What are the strength and dir

Anika [276]

Answer

Given,

Length of the wire,L = 31 cm = 0.31 m

mass of the wire, m = 9 g = 0.009 Kg

Current in the wire,I = 7 A

Magnetic field strength, B= ?

Equating magnetic force to the weight of the wire.

$BIL = m g$

$B=\dfrac{m g}{IL}$

$B=\dfrac{0.009\times 9.81}{7\times 0.31}$

B = 0.0407 T

For Force to be upward magnetic field direction should be outward of the plane of paper.

The noble gases neon (atomic mass 20.1797 u) and krypton (atomic mass 83.798 u) are accidentally mixed in a vessel that has a te

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

(a) Kav Ne = Kav Kr = 7.29x10⁻²¹J

(b) v(rms) Ne= 659.6m/s and v(rms) Kr= 323.7m/s

Explanation:

(a) According to the kinetic theory of gases the average kinetic energy of the gases can be calculated by:

$K_{av} = \frac{3}{2}kT$ (1)

where $K_{av}$ : is the kinetic energy, k: Boltzmann constant = 1.38x10⁻²³J/K, and T: is the temperature

From equation (1), we can calculate the average kinetic energies for the krypton and the neon:

$K_{av} = \frac{3}{2} (1.38\cdot 10^{-23} \frac{J}{K})(352.2K) = 7.29\cdot 10^{-21}J$

(b) The rms speeds of the gases can be calculated by:

$K_{av} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{rms}^{2} \rightarrow v_{rms} = \sqrt \frac{2K_{av}}{m}$

where m: is the mass of the gases and $v_{rms}$ : is the root mean square speed of the gases

For the neon:

$v_{rms} = \sqrt \frac{2(7.29 \cdot 10^{-21}J)}{20.1797 \frac{g}{mol} \cdot \frac {1mol}{6.022\cdot 10^{23}molecules} \cdot \frac{1kg}{1000g}} = 659.6 \frac{m}{s}$

For the krypton:

$v_{rms} = \sqrt \frac{2(7.29 \cdot 10^{-21}J)}{83.798 \frac{g}{mol} \cdot \frac {1mol}{6.022\cdot 10^{23}molecules} \cdot \frac{1kg}{1000g}} = 323.7 \frac{m}{s}$

atroni [7]

Answer: A.

series or parallel

Explanation:

Total resistance across any branch of a circuit can be found by analyzing whether the branch is connected in series or parallel.

The resistors are connected either in series or parallel. Therefore, the resistance of resistors across a circle can be calculated in series and parallel.
