Photon is a quantum of light or a single packet/particle of light at a given wavelength.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that light has dual nature of wave as well as particles. Light waves can behave in wave nature as well as in particle nature depending upon the situation. So the light waves are assumed in different views to easily understand the nature of light waves.

There are several models proposed to simplify the nature of light. Among the several assumptions, one of the most prominent observations are that light waves or quantum of light are termed as photons which are made up of single packet/particles of light in a given wavelength.

Out of solid and liquid which has more effect on gravitation​
il63 [147K]

Answer:

The effect of gravitation is more in liquid than on solid because inter molecular force of attraction is less in liquid and it is weak than that of solid. ... Whereas in solid the molecule are densely packed together an the inter molecular forces are constantly acting upon one another, this results in higher forces.

A football coach walks 24 meters eastward, then 12 meters
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Distance magnitude = 24 meters

The direction of the displacement = Eastward

Explanation:

The distance walked by the football coach eastward = 24 meters

The distance walked by the football coach westward = 12 meters

Then the distance walked by the football coach eastward = 36 meters

Finally, the distance walked by the football coach westward = 22 meters

The total distance walked by the coach eastward  = 24 + 36 = 60 meters

The total distance walked by the coach westward  = 12 + 22 = 34 meters

Taking x-direction as positive, we have;

The magnitude of the distance = 60 - 34 = 24 meters,

The direction of the coach = Eastward.
