YOUNG’S DOUBLE SLIT EXPERIMENT Interference Patterns This report will be performed by a group of 3 students viz. Harleen Kaur‚ Rutvi Patel and Sandhya‚ determining the wavelength of light from a laser using a double – slit slide. The laser was shone through the double – slit such that it projected interference pattern onto the paper screen. The experiment will be repeated three times varying the distance between the slit and the screen to understand the effective relationships. The expected wavelength

to a mystical side of quantum physics that stretches credulity and suggests "mind" as a component of the material universe. Matter emerges from nowhere and disappears again. Subatomic particles can ’t both be and be known to be. Matter shifts from existing to only having the potential to exist. Our human acts affect what is true at the quantum level. The act of measurement distorts what ’s being measured. Human consciousness itself seeps into the discussion of quantum physics. Consciousness

a particle from the ancient Greeks‚ then it became a wave with Huygens‚ then Newton suggested a particle theory again‚ then Fresnel and others suggested a wave theory again‚ then Einstein suggested a particle theory once more‚ until finally Quantum Mechanics settled it down: it is both a wave and a particle! Now everyone is happy except for the fact that no one understands what that really means...Huygens vs. NewtonChristian Huygens was born in 1629‚ while Isaac Newton was born in 1643. Huygens was

Cress Scientist of a Lifetime Werner Heisenberg was the scientist of a lifetime for many different reasons. Werner contributed to the theory of quantum physics‚ while also discovering allotropic forms of hydrogen and receiving the Nobel Prize for physics in 1932. Werner Heisenberg was a scientist of a lifetime because he thrived to learn as much about quantum physics‚ and other types of physics as possible he attended and worked at five different colleges‚ he also educated other people by giving lectures

The Atomic and Nuclear Structure of an Atom The atom has three main components the protons‚ neutrons‚ and electrons. The protons and neutrons make up the nucleus‚ while the electrons are found outside the atom’s nucleus. Each component of an atom has a charge to it. The protons have a positive charge. The electrons have a negative charge‚ and the neutrons have a neutral charge. The atoms also have a charge. For example hydrogen can be negative‚ positive or neutral. These are called

Mechanics Revision Exercise Q1. Which of the following is/are the direct implication(s) of Newton’s first law? (1) A boy standing on a bus is ’pulled’ backwards when the bus starts moving. (2) On a smooth surface‚ when you push another person in front of you‚ you will move backwards. (3) The balls of different masses reach the ground at the same time in Galileo’s experiment (carried out on the tower of Pisa). A (1) only B (2) only C (3) only D (1) and (2) only Q2.

EXAM 1 NOTES The actual pressure at a given position is called the absolute pressure‚ and it is measured relative to absolute vacuum (i.e.‚ absolute zero pressure). Most pressure-measuring devices‚ however‚ are calibrated to read zero in the atmosphere (Fig. 3–2)‚ and so they indicate the difference between the absolute pressure and the local atmospheric pressure. This difference is called the gage pressure. Pgage = Pabs - Patm The pressure at a point in a fluid has the same magnitude in all
