How far can beta particle travel through air?
Beta particles can travel up to a few meters in air before they lose energy and are absorbed. The distance they can travel depends on the energy of the particle, with higher energy beta particles able to travel further.
Do sound waves have to travel through a medium?
Yes, sound waves require a medium, such as air, water, or solid materials, to travel through. This is because sound waves are mechanical waves that propagate by transferring energy through particle interactions in the medium. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum where there is no medium.
Why doesn't light need a medium to travel?
Light is composed of particles called photons that can travel through empty space because they do not require a medium to propagate. This is due to the wave-particle duality of light, where it behaves both as a wave and a particle, allowing it to travel through vacuum without the need for a medium like air or water.
Is sound a particle or a wave?
Sound is a wave, not a particle. Sound waves are created by vibrations and travel through a medium, such as air or water, to carry sound from one place to another.
How do electromagnetic waves behave?
Electromagnetic waves are energy propagated through space in the form of oscillating electric and magnetic fields. They exhibit properties of both a wave and a particle. They travel at the speed of light, can travel through a vacuum, and can be reflected, refracted, diffracted, absorbed, and polarized.
How do particles within the medium not travel?
waves move through a particle.
How does a wave travel through a medium?
When a particle vibrates (moves back and forth), it can pass its energy to the particle next to it.
What is boson particle?
The boson particle is usually associated with the Higgs field. It is an energy field that transmits the mass to the things that travel through it.
How far can beta particle travel through air?
Beta particles can travel up to a few meters in air before they lose energy and are absorbed. The distance they can travel depends on the energy of the particle, with higher energy beta particles able to travel further.
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
Do sound waves have to travel through a medium?
Yes, sound waves require a medium, such as air, water, or solid materials, to travel through. This is because sound waves are mechanical waves that propagate by transferring energy through particle interactions in the medium. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum where there is no medium.
What is an empty space that contains no matter that light can travel through?
A vacuum.
Why can light travel trough space?
Because light is a particle that is fired of from a star, that particle travels many ages to go through space to reach your eyes when you see it
