A photon is a discrete particle (having zero mass, zero charge, and an indefinate life span explainable only by quantum physics) and can travel at the speed of light; a "material particle" can only travel at speeds lower than the speed of light.
A photon is a sub atomic particle is a single enery packet of light As it has no mass it can travel at the speed of light (since it is light) and are created when an electron makes a quantum leap inside an atom.
A proton is a fermion with two up quarks and one down quark. The proton is a carrier particle, that carries electromagnetic energy. Answer2: The Neutron is a neutral charged particle of one up quark and two down quarks, (udd). The Photon is a charged particle with 13 up quarks and 1 down quark, (13ud). The Photon is related to Planck's Constant h= zQ2 and the vacuum impedance z = Wb/Q. Q= square-root(h/z) = 4/3 E-18 Coulombs = 8 1/3 electrons = (13ud)
When an iodine-131 atom decays by emitting a beta particle and a gamma particle, it forms xenon-131. The beta particle is an electron, while the gamma particle is a high-energy photon. This decay process helps iodine-131 become a stable element, xenon-131.
Particle size refers to the overall size of the individual particles in a material, while crystallite size specifically refers to the size of the crystalline regions within a material. Crystallite size is related to the arrangement of atoms within a material, while particle size is a more general measure of the physical dimensions of the particles.
The 'rest mass' of the photon is zero ... but the photon is never at rest, and it has plenty of mass at the speed of light, at which it is always traveling. so that let's the photon out. Amongst particles that actually have rest mass, but not much of it, the neutrino probably has the least.
In a vacuum, a photon can ONLY move at the speed of light. A regular particle can ONLY move at speeds less than the speed of light.
sunlight is a particle of energy called a photon. photons are massless and are not a material in the conventional sense.
A photon is a massless elementary particle that does not have rest mass, while an inertial particle typically refers to a particle with mass that obeys Newton's laws of motion. Photons always travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, whereas inertial particles can have a range of velocities depending on their energy.
A photon is an Electrically neutral particle
Yes, a photon is an elementary particle.
Photon
No. A photon is a particle of light. It is massless.
Photon.
A photon is a particle of light, so they would travel the same path. As a photon travels through the different layers of the Sun, it may experience absorption, scattering, and re-emission by the particles in those layers. The process of absorption and re-emission can cause the photon's path to become randomized.
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.
A photon exhibits particle-like behavior when it interacts with matter, such as when it is absorbed or emitted by an atom.
When light behaves like a particle, it is called a photon. Photons are the fundamental particles of light and carry energy and momentum.
