Study Notes
Energy & Frequency
- As frequency increases, the energy of electromagnetic radiation increases
Alpha & Beta Particles
- Alpha particles are significantly larger than beta particles
Electromagnetic Radiation Origins
- Electromagnetic radiation originates from the movement of charged particles
Wave Speed Calculation
- The formula v = fλ allows the calculation of the speed of an electromagnetic wave, where:
- v is the speed of the wave
- f is the frequency of the wave
- λ is the wavelength of the wave
X-ray Application
- Fluoroscopy, an x-ray application, was dangerously used for entertainment and business gain
British Time Unit
- The unit of measure for time in the British system is the second
Energy-Frequency Relationship
- The formula E = hf demonstrates the direct relationship between energy (E) and frequency (f) of electromagnetic radiation, where h is Planck's constant
Momentum Calculation
- The momentum of a 30-kg object traveling at 2.5 m/s is 75 kg m/s, calculated using the formula momentum = mass x velocity
Oxygen Protons
- There are 8 protons in an atom of oxygen (168O)
Isobars
- Atoms with the same number of neutrons but different numbers of protons are called isobars
