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.

The specific heat of iron is 0.45j/gk. The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of the 12 g of iron by exactly 15k?
labwork [276]

Answer:

81 J.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.45 J/gK.

Temperature change (ΔT) = 15 K

Mass = 12 g

Heat required (Q) =?

The heat required to raise the temperature of iron can be obtained as illustrated below:

Q = MCΔT

Q = 12 × 0.45 × 15

Q = 81 J

Therefore, the heat required to raise the temperature of the iron is 81 J.

if the user exerts a 14 n force on the upper handle, estimate the force on the clove. express your answer with the appropriate u
Marizza181 [45]

The force on the clove will have the same magnitude but a negative sign with it that is F = - 14 N

<h3>What is force and how do we calculate it ?</h3>

The definition of force is: The pushing or pulling on a massed object changes its velocity. Force is an external agent that has the power to alter a body's resting or moving condition.

It has a size and a movement.

Newton's second law of motion defines the force formula as follows:

A force is equal to an object's mass times its acceleration, or F = m a. You must use SI units when applying this formula: kilograms for mass, meters per second squared for acceleration, and newtons for force.

A 5.0 kg object moving at 5.0 m/s. KE = mv2 times 1/2
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: KE = 62.5J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of object = 5kg

kinetic energy KE = ?

velocity of object = 5m/s

Since kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves. Therefore, the object has kinetic energy.

i.e K.E = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2 x 5kg x (5m/s)^2

KE = 0.5 x 5 x 25

KE = 62.5J

Thus, the object has 62.5 joules of kinetic energy.

A 21 N block rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the surface and the block ar
Georgia [21]

Answer:

a)15 N

b)12.6 N

Explanation:

Given that

Weight of block (wt)= 21 N

μs = 0.80 and μk = 0.60

We know that

Maximum value of static friction given as

Frs = μs m g = μs .wt

by putting the values

Frs= 0.8 x 21 = 16.8 N

Value of kinetic friction

Frk= μk m g = μk .wt

By putting the values

Frk= 0.6 x 21 = 12.6 N

a)

When T = 15 N

Static friction Frs= 16.8 N

Here the value of static friction is more than tension T .It means that block will not move and the value of friction force will be equal to the tension force.

Friction force = 15 N

b)

When T= 35 N

Here value of tension force is more than maximum value of static friction that is why block will move .We know that when body is in motion then kinetic friction will act on the body.so the value of friction force in this case will be 12.6 N

Friction force = 12.6 N
