The photon is the quanta of electromagnetic radiation (e.g. radio, light, x-rays, gamma rays). Quanta are the smallest units of something allowed.

Is a Proton torpedo more powerful than a Photon torpdeo?

As there are no technical specs for either, one cannot be certain. However, an interesting point is that while proton torpedoes are carried by fighters, photon torpedoes are carried by ships as much as 100 times bigger.


What is the mass of one photon?

mass of the proton is 0. Answer 2 But the question asked about photons, not protons. The mass of a photon is also 0, though the mass of a proton is not!


How does the energy of a photon compare in difference in energy levels of the atom from which it is emitted?

The energy of a photon emitted from an atom is determined by the energy difference between the initial and final energy levels of the atom. The energy of the photon is directly proportional to this difference in energy levels. If the energy levels are farther apart, the emitted photon will have higher energy, whereas if the levels are closer together, the photon will have lower energy.

What is difference between proton and positive charge?

There is no difference, they are one the same. A proton has a positive charge and a positive charge is a proton. Of course with the positive charge, it's simply having more protons than electrons.
