Флашкарти: Fundamentals of Light and Optics — 10 карти

Wave-Particle Duality — definition?

Light exhibits both wave and particle properties.

Wave-Particle Duality — definition?

Light exhibits both wave and particle behaviors.

Law of Reflection — principle?

Angles of incidence and reflection are equal.

Electromagnetic Spectrum — includes?

Gamma rays to radio waves, visible is small part.

Snell's Law — describes?

Refraction as light passes between media.

Speed of Light — constant?

Approximately 3.00 × 10^8 m/s in vacuum.

Photon — energy formula?

E = hν, where h is Planck's constant.

Refractive Index (n) — definition?

n = c/v, measures light slowing in media.

Law of Reflection — principle?

θi = θr, angle of incidence equals reflection.

Specular vs Diffuse Reflection — difference?

Specular: smooth surfaces; diffuse: rough surfaces.
