When electrons travel faster than the speed of light in a particular medium a beautiful deep-blue light occurs This effect is called?
Cherenkov radiation. It is produced when a charged particle, such as an electron, moves through a medium at a speed greater than the speed of light in that medium. The result is a characteristic blue glow.
What is the size of a diffusion particle?
Diffusion particles can vary in size, ranging from nanoparticles (1-100 nm) to larger molecules or particles. The size of a diffusion particle affects its movement and speed in a medium. Smaller particles generally diffuse more rapidly than larger ones due to their higher mobility.
Motion of particles influenced directly by temperature refers to?
Brownian motion, which is the random movement of particles suspended in a fluid (liquid or gas) due to their collisions with surrounding molecules. The speed and direction of Brownian motion are influenced by the temperature of the surrounding medium, with higher temperatures leading to increased particle movement.
The amount of time for one particle of the medium to make one complete vibration cycle is a good description of?
The amount of time for one particle of the medium to make one complete vibration cycle is known as the period of the wave. It is the time it takes for a wave to repeat its motion.
When the energy of a sound wave is transferred to a particle of a medium and causes it to vibrate and generate heat the sound wave is?
Reflected
What is the definition of particle motion?
Particle motion refers to the movement of individual particles in a substance or medium, such as the movement of atoms or molecules in a gas or liquid. It can also refer to the motion of subatomic particles in nuclear reactions or the movement of particles in response to external forces like electromagnetic fields.
Why do mechanical waves require a medium?
Mechanical waves rely on the movement of particles within a medium to propagate. The energy of the wave is transferred from one particle to another through interactions, which is why a medium is necessary. In the absence of a medium, such as in a vacuum, mechanical waves cannot propagate.
How are sound waves and electromagnetic waves different from one another?
Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves I.E the direction of movement of each particle in the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the transfer of energy, similar to a water wave. Sound waves are transverse and so the direction of the movement of the particles in the medium is the same direction as the movement of the energy.
How does the light move?
Light moves in a straight line at a constant speed of about 186,282 miles per second in a vacuum. When it encounters a medium like air or water, it may change direction and speed, depending on the medium's density. This movement is explained by the wave-particle duality of light, where it behaves as both a wave and a particle.
A wave travels through a medium because?
the waves energy passes from particle to particle
If two waves with equal amplitudes and wavelenghts travel through a medium in such a way that a particular particle of the medium is at the crest?
The particle will remain stationary due to interference
How does the propagation of sound in a medium differ between a transverse wave and a longitudinal wave?
In a transverse wave, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave, while in a longitudinal wave, the particles move parallel to the direction of the wave. This difference in particle movement affects how sound propagates in the medium.
What is the definition of kinetic art?
Art from any medium that contains movement perceivable by the viewer or depends on motion for its effect is kinetic art.
Why does sound travel slower through a medium when it is at low temperature?
Sound travels slower through a medium at low temperatures because the particles in the medium have lower energy and move more slowly, causing sound waves to propagate more slowly. This reduction in particle movement decreases the speed at which sound can travel through the medium.
A mechanical wave is created when a source of energy causes?
Particles of the carrier medium to vibrate.
What are the characteristic of mechanical waves?
Mechanical waves require a medium to propagate, such as air or water. They transfer energy through the vibration of particles in the medium. Mechanical waves can be categorized as transverse or longitudinal based on the direction of particle movement relative to wave propagation.
How does a solution differ from suspension?
Suspension is a hetrogenous mixture where particle are "suspended" in medium and can be seprated by easy process like sedimentation etc eg dust particle in air, chalk powder in water Solution is a homogenous mixture where you wont find particle in medium. eg suger in water,
