Do fluid molecules include solid molecules? Why does a particle move like a wave? What is true about microscopic properties of an object? 1) They are just small versions of the macroscopic properties. 2) They are the properties of particles that make up the object. 3) They are the ...
In the experiments, liquid flows around a moving particle. That flow, in turn, pushes on the adjacent sheet, deforming the surface into a sinusoidal wave with a depression and a hump. The stream of liquid into the depression and over the hump repels the particle away from the sheet. As t...
Michelson, along with his colleague Edward Morley, worked under the assumption that light moved as a wave, just like sound. And just as sound needs particles to move, Michelson and Morley and other physicists of the time reasoned, light must have some kind of medium to move through. This i...
In this configuration, they form a barrier that separates the inside of the cell from the outside and that does not permit water-soluble or charged particles (like ions) from moving through it. So how do charged particles get into cells? We'll find out on the next page. Ion Channels ...
To understand how to cancel noise, it’s important to first what itis. Sound, as you hear it, is really just the compression and decompression of the particles in the medium in which it flows through—for our purposes, we’re talking about air. Picture sound as a ripple moving through ...
Rayleigh waves were named for Lord Rayleigh, John William Strutt. He discovered this type of surface wave that is commonly associated with the rolling sensation of the ground during an earthquake.Answer and Explanation: Rayleigh waves cause a rotation of particles along the vertical plane. They ...
It is released in a thick stream and appears to have many ice particles in it. Snifflehunch[] Though Dragons: Rise of Berk previously mentioned that Snifflehunches have a fire sneeze, one individual, Sneezlehunch, is described to have an icy sneeze after dwelling in icy climates. Snow...
This raises an interesting question: If pilots can only move hot air balloons up and down, how do they get the balloon from place to place? As it turns out, pilots can maneuver horizontally by changing their vertical position, because wind blows in different directions at different altitudes....
They like to call this wave-particle duality, but the basic idea is much simpler than it sounds. Sometimes light behaves like a train of waves—much like waves traveling over the sea. Other times, it's more like a steady stream of particles—a bombardment of microscopic cannonballs, if ...
Atoms are proved to be semi-classical electronic systems in the sense of closeness of their exact quantum electron energy spectrum with that calculated within semi-classical approximation. Introduced semi-classical model of atom represents the wave functions of bounded in atom electrons in form of hyd...
