What is meant by the statement that a laser beam is coherent, mono-chromatic and parallel?

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Laser light however contains only one wavelength. This property makes lasers monochromatic, meaning of one color. Another property of lasers is that all the wavelengths are in phase, meaning they wave together. This property is called coherency. Laser light travels in the same direction, parallel to one another.

What is x-rays ? and how it's formed ?

tia_tia [17]

X - rays are highly penetrating electromagnetic radiations that are formed when the cathode rays strikes a dense metal.

For crystal diffraction experiments, wavelengths on the order of 0.25 nm are often appropriate.

Kamila [148]

Answer:

A) E = 4.96 x 10³ eV

B) E = 4.19 x 10⁴ eV

C) E = 3.73 x 10⁹ eV

Explanation:

For photon energy is given as:

$E = hv$

$E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where,

E = energy of photon = ?

h = 6.625 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

λ = wavelength = 0.25 nm = 0.25 x 10⁻⁹ m

Therefore,

$E = \frac{(6.625 x 10^{-34} J.s)(3 x 10^8 m/s)}{0.25 x 10^{-9} m}$

$E = (7.95 x 10^{-16} J)(\frac{1 eV}{1.6 x 10^{-19} J})$

E = 4.96 x 10³ eV

The energy of a particle at rest is given as:

$E = m_{0}c^2$

where,

E = Energy of electron = ?

m₀ = rest mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore,

$E = (9.1 x 10^{-31} kg)(3 x 10^8 m/s)^2\\$

$E = (8.19 x 10^{-14} J)(\frac{1 eV}{1.6 x 10^{-19} J})\\$

E = 4.19 x 10⁴ eV

The energy of a particle at rest is given as:

$E = m_{0}c^2$

where,

E = Energy of alpha particle = ?

m₀ = rest mass of alpha particle = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore,

$E = (6.64 x 10^{-27} kg)(3 x 10^8 m/s)^2\\$

$E = (5.97 x 10^{-10} J)(\frac{1 eV}{1.6 x 10^{-19} J})\\$

E = 3.73 x 10⁹ eV

How can you be both at rest and also moving at 100,000 km/h at the same time

4vir4ik [10]

You could be lying completley still on your bed, and all though it seems you are at rest, you are moving along with the earth around the sun and hence are motion. This is why 'being at rest' is more of a relative term. Hope this helps!

QUESTION 23

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

E = 3600 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage, V = 115 V

Power of electric bulb, P = 60 W

We need to find the electric energy used in 1 minute. The electric energy use is given by :

$E=P\times t\\\\E=60\ W\times 60\ s\\\\E = 3600\ J$

Hence, the electrical energy is 3600 J.
