Physics

Answer:

Spontaneous emission is  a quantum effect, which in a semiclassical picture can be described as an emission which is stimulated by vacuum noise.

Spontaneous emission is the process in which a quantum mechanical system transits from an excited energy state to a lower energy state and emits a quantized amount of energy in the form of a photon. <em><u>definition from wikipedia </u></em>

What is the difference between distance and displacement? Give an example of a situation where distance and displacement both ha
Oksana_A [137]

Explanation :

Distance is total path travelled by an object during its entire journey. It is a scalar quantity i.e only magnitude.

Displacement is the shortest distance covered by an object. It is basically the change in position of object. It is a vector quantity i.e direction as well as magnitude.

When an object is travelling in a straight line and stops at the end point, then both distance and displacement are same.

When an object is travelling in a straight line and then changes its direction or we can say come backwards then the magnitude of distance and displacement are different.

When Bella pushes a box with a mass of 5.25 kilograms with a force of 15.75 newtons, it accelerates at a rate of 2.5 meters/seco
Mariana [72]

Sure !

Start with Newton's second law of motion:

                     Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

This formula is so useful, and so easy, that you really
should memorize it.

Now, watch:

The mass of the box is 5.25 kilograms, and the box is
accelerating at the rate of  2.5 m/s² .
What's the net force on the box ?

                    Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                                     = (5.25 kilograms) x (2.5 m/s²)

                     Net force =       13.125 newtons .

But hold up, hee haw, whoa !  Wait a second !
Bella is pushing with a force of 15.75 newtons, but the box
is accelerating as if the force on it is only 13.125 newtons.
What happened to the rest of Bella's force ? ?

==>  Friction is pushing the box in the opposite direction,
and cancelling some of Bella's force.

How much ?

            (Bella's 15.75 newtons) minus (13.125 that the box feels)

           =      2.625 newtons backwards, applied by friction.

The electrons in the beam of a television tube have an energy of 19.0 keV. The tube is oriented so that the electrons move horiz
igomit [66]

Answer:

The direction is due south

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The energy of the electron is E = 19.0keV = 19.0 *10^3 eV

      The earths magnetic field is B = 42.3 \muT = 42.3 *10^{-6} T

     

Generally the force on the electron is perpendicular to the velocity of the elecrton and the magnetic field and this is mathematically reresented as

          \= F = q (\= v * \=B)

On the first uploaded image is an  illustration of the movement of the electron

    Looking at the diagram  we can see that in terms of direction  the magnetic force  is

             \= F  =q(\=v * \= B)= -( -\r i * - \r k)

                = -(- (\r i * \r k))

generally  i cross k = -j

      so the equation above becomes

             \= F = -(-(- \r j))

                = - \r j

This show that the direction is towards the south
