Which theory does Young's double slit experiment illustrate?

Physics
1 answer:
sveta [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: C. The dual nature of light

Explanation:

Young’s double slit experiment showed the dual behaviour of light (and matter) as a wave and as a particle.

Although currently it is known that light behaves as a wave and as a particle. It should be noted that many years ago it was thought light had only a corpuscular behaviour. In fact, the first to propose the corpuscular theory of light was Issac Newton, while Christian Huygens (who was contemporaneous with him) proposed the wave theory.

However, when Thomas Young performed  the double slit experiment with photons (light) the result was: Light is able to behave also as waves.

What is the closest distance the electrodes used in an NCV test can be placed on a nerve in order to measure the voltage change
sammy [17]

Answer:

0.1 m

Explanation:

The closest distance the electrodes used in an NCV test in oerder to measure

the voltage change as a response to the stimulus is 0.1 m.

This is because the shortest observable time period is not less than the action-potential time response of 1 mili second the length traveled by the sensation during this time is 1 m sec x 100 m / s =0.1 m, which is the shortest distance the electrodes could be positioned on the nerve.

What is the force of a ball if it has a mass of 10 kg and accelerates at an acceleration of 20 m/s^2? *
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

200N

Explanation:

mass(m) = 10 kg

acceleration(a) = 20 m/s^2

Force = mass * acceleration

          = 10*20

          = 200 N

Force = 200N

Can some answer 7 a and b please
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

a.After 15 second Mr Comer's speed =  1.7 m/s

b.Distance travelled by Mr.Comer in 15 seconds  =   18.75\ m

Explanation:

a. Lets recall our first equation of motion V_{f} =V_{i} + at

Now we know that V_{i} = 0.8m/s , a = 0.06\ m/s^2 and

t = 15 \ sec

Plugging the values we have.

V_{f} =V_{i} + at

V_{f} =0.8 + 0.06 \times 15

V_{f} =0.8+ 0.9

V_{f} =1.7 m/s

Then Mr.Comer's speed after 15 sec = 1.7ms^-1

b.

Lets find the distance and recall our third equation of motion.

V_{f} ^2-V{i}^2 = 2as

So s = distance covered.

Dividing both sides with 2a we have.

\frac{V_{f} ^2-V{i}^2}{2a} = 2as

Plugging the values.

\frac{(1.7)^2-(0.8)^2}{2\times0.06} = 2as

s= 18.75\ m

So Mr.Comer will travel a distance of s= 18.75\ m.

A point on the string of a violin moves up and down in simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 1.24 mm and frequency of 875
mario62 [17]

Using

V = Amplitude x angular frequency(omega)

But omega= 2πf

= 2πx875

=5498.5rad/s

So v= 1.25mm x 5498.5

= 6.82m/s

B. .Acceleration is omega² x radius= 104ms²
