When we say a particle is weakly interacting, it means that it interacts with other particles through the weak nuclear force, which is one of the four fundamental forces in nature. This interaction is relatively weaker compared to the strong and electromagnetic forces.

What do we mean when we say that particles such as neutrinos or wimps are weakly interacting, and how does this characteristic impact their behavior in the realm of particle physics?

Particles like neutrinos and WIMPs are considered weakly interacting because they rarely interact with other particles through the weak nuclear force. This means they can pass through matter without being affected much. This characteristic impacts their behavior in particle physics by making them difficult to detect and study, as they don't leave a strong signal when interacting with other particles.


When the distance from a charged particle decreases the strength of the electric field true or false?

True. The strength of the electric field created by a charged particle is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the particle. As the distance decreases, the electric field strength increases.


The amplitude of a wave measures?

It measures the maximum displacement of a particle in the wave from the equilibrium position. The equilibrium position is also known as the resting position. When displacement of the particle equal to the amplitude, we say that it is at the amplitude, where it is furthest from its equilibrium position.


Why do scientists say wave model of light instead of saying that light is a wave?

Saying "wave model of light" emphasizes that light exhibits wave-like behavior in certain situations, such as interference and diffraction, but can also display particle-like behavior in other situations. This acknowledges the dual nature of light as both a wave and a particle.


Is a wave a particle?

At high energies, some subatomic particles can be described as a wave. This is because at high energies they display wave-like properties, such as diffraction. Science works on the basis that we use models to describe the world around us. If a model works, then we can say that it is true. So, at higher energies, the model of an electron being a wave works because it can predict the behaviour of the electron at that time. It may not be the best thing to say that a wave IS a particle, but we can say that certain particles may behave (and can be described) as waves and vice versa.

I think you mean a neutron. We don't say 'a neutral charge', but rather that it has no charge.

"Why does my phone have to be quarantined"?

This is what I would say: Your phone would be quarantined because of a parental reason or you being caught using your phone when interacting with a computer such as online class. You use your phone when interacting with your computer because the subject was boring.

Do you say inner act or inter act with people?

Interact. If you talk to someone else, you are interacting with that person. The same with anything that you make contact with.


What is that thing where you talk to a computer?

That computer is capable of interacting with people or understanding what we say. It has natural language processing system. It recognizes the words which we speak.
