If electromagnetic radiation acted like particles in the double-slit experiment, what would be observed? (1 point)
ludmilkaskok [199]

If electromagnetic radiation acted like particles in the double-slit experiment, we would observe one bright band would appear in the center of the screen.

<h3>Bahavior of particles in double-slit experiment</h3>

In a double-slit experiment, single particles, such as photons, pass one at a time through a screen containing two slits.

The photons behave like wave and the constructive interfernce of the waves of these photons will generate a high amplitude wave seen as a bright band in the center of the screen.

Thus, if electromagnetic radiation acted like particles in the double-slit experiment, we would observe one bright band would appear in the center of the screen.

At a certain point in space, there is a potential of 800 V relative to zero. What is the potential energy of the system when a +
sammy [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to electric potential and electric potential energy. By definition we know that the electric potential is determined under the function:

V = \frac{k_e q}{r}

k_e = Coulomb's constant

q = Charge

r = Radius

At the same time

U = \frac{k_e q_1q_2}{r}

The values of variables are the same, then if we replace in a single equation we have this expression,

U  = Vq

If we replace the values, we have finally that the charge is,

V = 800V

q = 1\mu C

U = (800V)(1*10^{-6}C)

U = 8*10^{-4}J

Therefore the potential energy of the system is 8*10^{-4} J

natta225 [31]

Answer:

K=24.17 x 10⁻² J s⁻¹c⁻¹m⁻¹

Explanation:

Rate of flow of heat through a material is given by the following expression

\frac{Q}{t} =\frac{KA\delta T}{d}

where Q is amount of heat flowing in time t through area A and  a medium of thickness d having two faces at temperature difference δT . K is thermal conductivity of the medium .

Here Q = 3.34 x 10⁶/6 , t = 24 x 60 x 60 = 86400 s , A = .332 X .332 = .0110224 m² ,  δT = 104.7

Put these values here

\frac{3.34\times10^6}{6\times86400}= \frac{k\times.011224\times104.7}{4.41\times10^{-2}}

K=\frac{3.34\times4.41\times10^4}{6\times86400\times.011224\times104.7}

K=24.17 x 10⁻² J s⁻¹c⁻¹m⁻¹
