Huygen's principle suggests that

Wave fronts are composed of only single waves

Wave fronts are composed of many smaller wave fronts

Wave fronts are always the same size



46.

Which wavelength is easiest to diffract?

Long wavelengths (low frequencies)

Short wavelengths (high frequencies)

All wavelengths diffracts just the same



47.

When the crest of one wave aligns with the trough of another wave the result is

Constructive interference

Destructive interference


48.

Transmit all light

Transmit 50% of all incident light

Transmit no light



49.

Holograms are created

Using laser light

Using two sets of wave fronts

By using interference patterns

All of the above

56.

A quanta of light is

A photoelectron

A wave

A particle


57.

Why does the world appear smooth and continuous rather than grainy as described by quantum physics

The world appears smooth and continuous because we are not sensitive to the small scale microworld of the quanta

The world actually is smooth and continuous

Quantum physics is incorrect

Both b and c


58.

The individual energies of photons vary with

The frequencies of electromagnetic waves present

The number of photons present


59.

The photoelectric effect can be explained

Only in the "light as particles" view of light

Only in the "light as waves" view of light

Neither a or b



60.

The property of interference can be explained

Only in the "light as particles" view of light

Only in the "light as waves" view of light

Neither a or b

I will be happy to check your thinking.
