What is k edge absorption?
In science and physics, k-edge absorption is when the shell of an electron in that atom cannot eject the K shell electron. This typically occurs when there is too many photons occurring at once.
What is quality of sound in physics?
The word "quality" is unlikely to be used in physics because it is not an objective, measurable characteristic. Acoustics (the physics of sound and vibration) analyses sounds to determine their spectra, and measures their overall intensity and power, but I have never seen 'quality' used in a formal sense. ' I suppose it may come into architectural acoustics, which would no doubt cover at least absorption, echoes and reverberation with respect to frequency and amplitude in the building under study, but that's not a field with which I am familiar.
Why did Robert Hofstadter win The Nobel Prize in Physics in 1961?
The Nobel Prize in Physics 1961 was divided equally between Robert Hofstadter for his pioneering studies of electron scattering in atomic nuclei and for his thereby achieved discoveries concerning the structure of the nucleons and Rudolf Ludwig Mossbauer for his researches concerning the resonance absorption of gamma radiation and his discovery in this connection of the effect which bears his name.
Will anything slow down the absorption of alcohol?
A full stomach will slow the absorption.
What fields of science was Albert Einstein in?
Physics. Indeed, he won the Nobel Prize in physics -- but not for relativity.Math and Physics
What are the excitements in physics?
Excitement means addition/absorption of energy.

What do you mean by absorption coefficient?
Physics is the study of such concepts of motion, force, energy, matter, heat, sound, light and the components of atoms. Physics is basic to both physical

How is the speed of light in glass affected by the succession of time delays that accompany the absorption and re emission of light from atom to atom in the glass?
bro, just do your physics homework

How does chemistry contribute to physics?
The link might be Materials Science - the chemical and physical properties of materials such as metals, plastics etc. At a fundamental level chemistry is physics in action - the making and breaking of bonds between atoms and molecules, often with the absorption or emission of energy as heat and/or light.
