A cyclotron is constructed of two hollow, D-shaped electrodes that accelerate particles; they are opposite each other and there is a small gap between them. A magnetic field is used to bend the particle t...

All radio active decay is random. In any radioactive substance each specific nucleus has a chance of decaying at one specific point in time. However we can't predict when this is going to happen. Instead...

Mirrors can be made much larger than lenses (meters compared to around 1m max). Mirrors do not produce chromatic aberration. Mirror glass does not need to be as high quality as lens glass. Mirrors produce...

E = hfE = energyh = planck's constant = 6.63 x 10^-34f = wave frequency
c = fλf = c/λ
E = hc/λ
c = 3.0 x 10⁸ The speed of light which in this case is the speed of the ...

For this question, we will use moments. A moment is defined as:Moment = force x perpendicular distance from pivotHere, the moment of the 30kg mass which acts anti-clockwise through the pi...
