The frequency of the scattered photon decreases or it will be lower compare to the frequency of incident photon. An x-ray photon scatters in one direction after a collision and some energy is transferred to the electron as it recoils in another direction resulting to have less energy in the scattered photon. In addition, the frequencies will also depend on the differences of the angle at which the scattered photon leaves the collision and this incident is called Compton Effect.

Electrons are important to electric current because they are able to__________.
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The answer would be:

Move from one atom to another; the atom that looses an electron becomes positively charged and the atom that gains an electron becomes negatively charged.

It is the movement of electrons from on atom to another that enables elements to form chemical bonds. If electrons do not move, they are shared. The atom that loses an electron becomes positive because it would have less electrons than protons. The atom that accepts the electron becomes negative because it would have more electrons than protons.

Just remember that all elements are neutral, or they have the same number of protons and electrons. They become charged when they lose or gain one.

A massless, rigid board is placed across two bathroom scales that are separated by a distance of 1.71 m. A person lies on the bo
Nata [24]

Answer:

Let the weight of the person be W and be located at a distance 'a' from the left scale as shown in the figure

Since the body is in equilibrium we can use equations of statics to analyse the problem.

Taking Sum of Moments about A we have

316\times 1.71-W\times a=0\\\\

Taking Sum of Moments about B we have

475\times 1.71-W\times (1.71-a)=0\\\\

Solving the above 2 equations for W and 'a' we get

316\times 1.71=W\times a\\\\475\times 1.71-W\times 1.71=-Wa\\\\\therefore W=\frac{316+475}{1}=791N\\\\\therefore a=\frac{316\times 1.71}{791}=0.683m

A golden-colored cube is handed to you. The person wants you to buy it for $100, saying that is a gold nugget. You pull out your
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of cube=side³

=2*2*2

=8 cm³

Mass of cube=40g

Its density=mass/volume

=5g/cm³

which differs the value given in the text hence it is not gold and u should not bye it...

Instead u should call the police for arresting the person lol...

What is reflection of light
AnnZ [28]

Answer: When a ray of light approaches a smooth polished surface and the light ray bounces back, it is called the reflection of light. The incident light ray which lands upon the surface is said to be reflected off the surface. The ray that bounces back is called the reflected ray.<u> </u>
