What term is used to describe the fact that electromagnetic radiation can be thought of as either a continuous wave or as a stream of individual packets of energy?

The term used to describe this duality of electromagnetic radiation is "wave-particle duality." It is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics, where light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation exhibit characteristics of both waves and particles.


How are energy and electromagnetic radiation related?

Electromagnetic radiation is one way that energy can be transfered across a distance. EM radiation can be thought of as packets of wave, each called a photon. A photon has a certain amount of energy, which can be found using the formula "E = hf", where 'f' is the frequency of the light, and 'h' is plancks constant (h = 6.626×10−34 Js).


All electromagnetic radiation can travel thought empty space and travels at the same speed?

Yes, all electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, radio waves, and X-rays, can travel through empty space (a vacuum). In a vacuum, all forms of electromagnetic radiation travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second (186,282 miles per second).

Why did Henri becquerel win the nobel prize?

Henri Becquerel was the first to discover that a penetrating radiation came from uranium, even if the uranium had not been exposed to sunlight. He thus showed that radioactivity was a fundamental property of uranium. Prior to his discovery, it was thought that any such radiation coming from uranium was the result of its interaction with sunlight.
