Answer: D. Diffract

Explanation:

Diffraction is a phenomenon that is based on the deviation of the waves (light waves in this case) when encountering an obstacle.

In addition, it is important to note this phenomenom occurs in all types of waves (ncluding electromagnetic waves).

So, in a general way:

Diffraction happens when a wave (mechanical or electromagnetic wave) meets an obstacle or a slit . When this occurs, the wave bends around the corners of the obstacle or passes through the opening of the slit that acts as an obstacle.

Hence, the correct option is D:

<h3>In order to demonstrate the interference of light waves, the light source emits rays of light, which <u>diffract</u> towards the double slit.</h3>

2<br><br> How does Descartes' "quality of motion" differ from the modern<br><br> momentum?
Rzqust [24]

Answer: Descartes was more of speed which defers from modern day velocity.

Explanation:

Descartes law if conservation referred or defined “motion” rather than “momentum” as what is obtainable in today's world as ”speed” the rate at which something moves rather than “velocity” which is a product of speed and direction. So in conclusion Descartes was more of speed which defers from modern day velocity.

How much work does the electric field do in moving a proton from a point with a potential of +125 v to a point where it is -55 v
777dan777 [17]
The work W done by the electric field in moving the proton is equal to the difference in electric potential energy of the proton between its initial location and its final location, therefore:
W= qV_i - qV_f
where q is the charge of the proton, q=1 e = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C, with e being the elementary charge, and V_i = +125 V and V_f = -55 V are the initial and final voltage.

Substituting, we get (in electronvolts):
W=e(125 V-(-55 V))=180 eV
and in Joule:
W=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19})(125 V-(-55V))=2.88 \cdot 10^{-17}J
