Question
Answer
Wavelength   The Shortest distance between equivalent points on a continuous wave is usually expressed in meters centimeters or nanometers.  
🗑
Frequency   The number of waves that pass a given point per second.  
🗑
Amplitude   The waves height from the origin to a crest or from the origin to the trough.  
🗑
electromagnectic Spectrum   includes all forms of eletromagnetic radiation with the only differences in the types of radiation being their frequencies and waves.  
🗑
Quantum   is the minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom  
🗑
Photoeletric Effect   electrons called pohotelectrons are emitted from a metals surface when light of a certain frequency shines on the surface  
🗑
Photon   is a particle of an eletromagnetic radiation with no mass that carries quantum of energy  
🗑
Atomic Emission spectrum   A set of frequencies of eletromagnetic waves given off by atoms of an element consists of a series of fine lines of indivual colors.  
🗑
ground state   the lowest allowable energy state of an atom  
🗑
de Brogile equation   Predicts all moving paticles have wave characteristics  
🗑
Heisenberg uncertainty principle   states that it is fundamentally impossible to know perciesly both the velocity and position of ap article at the same time.  
🗑
Quantum Mechnical model of the atom   The atomic model in which eletrons are treated as waves  
🗑
Princpl
