Electricity
Mathematically explains why like charges repel one another while opposite charges attract one another.
What is coulombs Law(Law of Charges)?
Defines the vector force of the electric and magnetic field forces.
What is the Lorentz Force?
Passes waves that are linearly polarized along its axis and blocks waves polarized perpendicularly to that axis.
What is a polarizing filter?
The continuous-spectrum radiation that a blackbody emits.
What is Blackbody Radiation?
The lowest end of the EM spectrum commonly used to transmit data.
What is Radio Waves?
The separation of charges within the object.
What is polarization?
Combines the electric field and the magnetic field into a single electromagnetic field.
What are Maxwells Equations?
When the scattering of light is wavelength independent.
What is Mie(Non-Selective Scattering)
When light bends around obstacles or when light passes through very small aperture openings.
What is Diffraction?
ranges from 400nm to 700nm. Created by electron transitions in the outer shells of atoms. Can be perceived by the human eye.
What is Visible Light?
The net number of electric field lines passing through an imaginary closed surface is proportional to the amount of net charge enclosed within that surface.
What is Guass Law
Daily Double
Defines the vector force of the electric and magnetic field forces.
What is Lorentz Force?
The most energetic photon is produced if the electron is braked to a stop all at once when it hits the anode, so all its kinetic energy goes to produce one photon.
What is Braking Radiation(Bremsstrahlung or how ever you say it)
A function to describe experimental intensity distribution curves. Makes it possible to accurately graph the emittance for an object of known wavelength and temp.
What is Plancks Radiation Law?
The highest waves in the EM spectrum. They originate from the nucleus of atom and represent a tremendous amount of energy emitted by the nucleus of atoms.
What are Gamma Rays?
Graphical depictions of vectors emanating from a point charge.
What are Electric field lines.
The two determining factors of the speed of light in free space.
What is permittivity and permeability?
In general it is impossible to simultaneously determine both the position and the momentum of a particle with arbitrarily great position.
What is the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle?
Used to calculate exactly how much energy does an object radiate. Object radiates energy proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temp.
What is Sefan-Boltzmann Law
Generated primary by the rotation of molecules or electronic circuits.
What are Microwaves?
The lines of force in H-fields.
What is a oscillating electric field.
An experiment that observes the difference in wavelength between an incident X-ray and a scattered X-ray.
What is Compton Scattering?
When light waves have the same frequency they are said to be...
What is monochromatic?
Caused by the vibrations of molecules and are emitted as a result of heat.
What is infrared?
