The De Broglie wavelength equation is as follows:

λ=h/p

We know the value of Planck's constant h and so to calculate the wavelength all we need is the momentum, which is equ...

The key to this question is to remember the Nyquist rate of a signal. This is the lowest sample rate which can be used for a signal without losing valid frequencies or gaining incorrect frequencies. Th...

This problem can be solved by first considering the energy of a photon e = hf. ​A photon of red light lacks the sufficient energy to free an electron. However a photon of blue light has a higher frequency...

All that is meant by an 'excited' atom is that one or more of the atoms electrons in it's shells, are then excited into shells that are in higher energy states that they were in before.

At short distances between the nucleons at roughly 3 femtometers or so, the strong nuclear force between two nucleons begins to overcome the electrostatic repulsion (if both or one nucleon is a proton)...
