Nothing in our everyday existence suggests that an electric field

has any influence on light shining through it.

What is a photon amplitude?

Photon amplitude refers to the strength or magnitude of the electric field associated with a photon. It represents the maximum displacement of the electric field from its equilibrium position. In quantum theory, it is related to the probability amplitude of the photon being in a particular state.


Why is a photon seen as narrow bars of light instead of a rainbow of lights?

A photon is just one particle, having necessarily just one wavelength; it cannot produce a rainbow, which requires a whole range of wavelengths. The narrow bar effect is the result of the instrument used to measure a photon, which has a narrow slit through which the photon passes.


What particles and charges make up a photon?

The photon IS the particle in this case. It isn't known to be made up of any smaller particles. The electric charge of a photon is zero.


Are electromagnetic waves deflected by magnetic and electric fields?

According to photon theory ,electromagnetic radiation consists of photon which are changeless particles. therefore they are not deflected by electric or magnetic fields.


Why photon cannot be deflected by electric and magnetic field?

Photons are neutral particles that do not carry electric charge, so they do not interact directly with electric or magnetic fields. As a result, photons do not experience deflection when passing through these fields. However, the presence of an electric or magnetic field can still affect the path of charged particles, such as electrons, that interact with these fields.


What would happen to a light ray after it has passed through a camera?

It goes to entropy. The photon will always exist but it often converts most of its energy to heat.


Can more than one mutation occur in a single organism?

Yes, mutations can occur all over at the same time. For example in a multicellular organism a gamma ray or x-ray photon passing through the organism can generate one or more mutations in every cell that the photon passes through. Another example mutagenic chemicals can produce many mutations in every chromosome.


What is a photon How does it work What is a photon's part in magnetism?

What: a photon is the boson that carries the electromagnetic force.How: I'm not sure there is an answer to this, the particle is a boson and carries a specific quanta of energy.What part: it carries the electromagnetic force in both electric and magnetic interactions between the objects involved.


What happens When a photon strikes a solar cell?

When a photon strikes a solar cell it bounces off. In Physics, a photon is an elementary particle, the quantum of the electromagnetic interaction and the basic unit of light and all other forms of electromagnetic radiation.


What has neither mass nor electric charge but possess energy and momentum?

This describes a photon quite well.


The electric charge of a photon is how many times stronger the charge of an electron?

The electric charges of the proton and electron are equal in magnitude (size, strength), and opposite in sign.


What is a particle with noneutral electric charge?

If you mean a neutral particle, that might be:* The neutron * The graviton * The photon ... among others.
