Light is a particle and wave

Lorico [155]3 years ago

8 0

Answer:

The answer is the second option, Light is both a particle and a wave.

Explanation:

The first option is incorrect because Light and electrons aren't the same thing, One of the main reasons why is that particles of light which are called photons do not have any mass, while electrons have a negligible mass, but they still have some mass.

Both the third and fourth options are incorrect because Light is both a particle and a wave and they're not mutually exclusive as light behaves like a wave on some experiments and light behaves like a particle in some experiments.

Extra knowledge:

In my opinion, you could almost say that Light is kind of like Schrodinger's cat, if you place a cat inside the radioactive chamber until you open the chamber you would not know that whether the cat is dead or alive, so technically the cat is both dead and alive.

In the same way Light behaves as a wave and a particle and you won't be able to find out which unless you conduct an experiment.

A ray of light bends upon entering a new medium. What is this phenomenon called?

Ainat [17]

Refraction is a phenomenon which results when a ray of light enters from one medium to another medium. When a ray of light enters from denser medium to rarer medium, it bends away from the normal. The laws of refraction are: The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal all lie in the same plane.

Part A If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 47.5 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 51.5 m/s in the opposite

nalin [4]

Explanation:

Let us assume that the mass of a pitched ball is 0.145 kg.

Initial velocity of the pitched ball, u = 47.5 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = -51.5 m/s (in opposite direction)

We need to find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and the impulse applied to it by the bat. The change in momentum of the ball is given by :

$\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\\Delta p=0.145\times ((-51.5)-47.5)\\\\\Delta p=-14.355\ kg-m/s$

So, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball is 14.355 kg-m/s.

Let the the ball remains in contact with the bat for 2.00 ms. The impulse is given by :

$J=\dfrac{\Delta p}{t}\\\\J=\dfrac{14.355}{2\times 10^{-3}}\\\\J=7177.5\ kg-m/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A fire hose ejects a stream of water at an angle of 35.0Â° above the horizontal. The water leaves the nozzle with a speed of 25.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The fire hose be located 59.80 m away to hit the highest possible fire.

Explanation:

Vertical velocity = 25 sin35 = 14.34 m/s

Acceleration = -9.81m/s²

At maximum height , final vertical velocity = 0 m/s

We have v = u + at

Substituting

0 = 14.34 - 9.81 x t

t = 1.46 s

Time of flight of water = 2 x 1.46 = 2.92 s

Horizontal velocity = 25 cos35 = 20.48 m/s

Horizontal displacement = 20.48 x 2.92 = 59.80 m

So, the fire hose be located 59.80 m away to hit the highest possible fire.

Water is a colorless and odorless liquid. It can exist in solid, liquid, and gas states. It boils at 100 degrees C and melts at

BARSIC [14]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Physical properties are the properties in which there is no change in chemical composition of a substance. On the other hand, chemical properties are the properties which change the chemical composition of a substance.

For example, when water boils at $100 ^{o}C$ then it changes into vapor state whereas when water freezes at $0^{0}C$ then it changes state from liquid to solid.

This means only physical state of water is changing and there is no change in chemical composition of water.

Hence, we can conclude that best option describing given information is that these are the physical changes water undergoes.
