Answer: Diffraction occurs when waves interact with a gap.

Diffraction occurs in any type of wave—mechanical or electromagnetic.

Explanation:

The phenomenon of light to bend around a small obstruction in its path is known as diffraction. Diffraction occurs for any type of waves- transverse or longitudinal i.e. for mechanical or electromagnetic waves.

When the medium changes- refraction occurs. Waves reflect back from a barrier. Diffraction occurs when the wavelength of the wave is comparable to the size of the gap. The wave bends around the corners of the gap.

A large sheet of charge has a uniform charge density of 9  μCm2. What is the electric field due to this charge at a point just

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Explanation:

Surface charge density, σ = 9 μC/m² = 9 x 10^-6 C/m²

According to the Gauss theorem,

Electric field due to the sheet is given by

$E = \frac {\sigma }{2\epsilon _{0}}$

$E = \frac{9\times 10^{-6}}{2\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}}$

E = 5.08 x 10^5 N/C

Estimate the magnitude of the electric field due to the proton in a hydrogen atom at a distance of

Lana71 [14]

Electric field due to a point charge is given as

$E = \frac{kq}{r^2}$

here we know that

$q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$

also the distance is given as

$r = 5.29 \times 10^{-11} m$

now we will have

$E = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(1.6 \times 10^{-19})}{(5.29 \times 10^{-11})^2}$

so we will have

$E = 5.14 \times 10^{11} N/C$

so above is the electric field due to proton
