It is a divison of sorts... think of a checker board. When you move the pieces you move one space forward or one space back. The starting and ending postion of the piece could be considered the quantized existance of the piece.
Motion and time on the otherhand are generally considered continous or flowing. Going back to the checkerboard, as you move the piece from one space to the next, you have to pass ever place inbetween. The checker doesn't just disappear and reappear.
In science, as particles get smaller and smaller they stop behaving by the same rules as larger masses. Their motion and existance can become quantized--for instance in chemistry when talking about electron states, it is useful to think of the electrons existing at quantized states or enegery levels.
Light is radiated from the Sun, the Moon and the Earth. Radiation is a "shining out" from whatever is making the light. When we see the Moon we are seeing it because the Sun has radiated light out into space and some of it has lit up the Moon, which then reflects the moonlight to Earth. Light is reflected best by smooth and shiny materials such as plain glass or mirror glass.
The fluorescence of a mineral refers to its ability to emit visible light when exposed to ultraviolet light. This property can provide information about the mineral's composition, impurities, or crystal structure. Fluorescence is commonly used in mineral identification and research.
The opposite of opaque is transparent. Oppaque refers to something that does not allow light to pass through, while transparent refers to something that allows light to pass through easily.
Penumbra refers to the partially shaded outer region of a shadow, where the light is partially blocked. It is the area between complete darkness (umbra) and full light. In a metaphorical sense, it can also refer to a transitional state or a gray area.
Photodegrade refers to the process by which a material breaks down or decomposes when exposed to light, typically sunlight. It is a type of degradation that occurs due to the energy from light causing chemical reactions in the material, leading to its breakdown into smaller molecules.
It has a specific value
The photoelectric effect is a phenomenon that can only be explained by assuming that light is quantized. In this effect, electrons are ejected from a material when it is exposed to light of a certain frequency. The energy of the ejected electrons is dependent on the frequency of the light, supporting the idea that light is made up of discrete packets of energy called photons.
The electromagnetic spectrum provides evidence for quantized changes in energy levels of atoms. This is seen in the emission or absorption of specific discrete frequencies of light, which is a result of electrons jumping between quantized energy levels within the atom. This phenomenon is described by quantum mechanics.
It means that light energy can only exist in specific, discrete amounts called "quanta" or photons. These photons have specific energies that are determined by their frequency and are indivisible units of light energy. This concept is a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics and helps explain certain behaviors of light, such as the photoelectric effect.
Quantized energy means that energy can only exist in discrete, specific amounts called quanta. This concept comes from quantum mechanics, where energy levels of particles are restricted to certain values rather than being continuous. It explains phenomena like the emission of light in distinct wavelengths or the arrangement of electrons in an atom.
Light energy is measured in units called photons. Photons are the smallest unit of light and are quantized particles that exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties.
They have fixed energy values.
Quantized. (Number 4 if you are using what I think you are using.)
Max Planck considered quantized the energy of vibrating atoms, leading to the development of quantum theory. He proposed that energy is emitted or absorbed in discrete units or "quanta," rather than in a continuous manner.
When a quantity is quantized, it means that it can only take on discrete, specific values rather than any continuous value. This is often seen in physical phenomena such as the quantization of energy levels in atoms or the quantization of charge in elementary particles.
Digital quantized information and analog is just information. Like the letter "i" on your screen is digital and made up of a few pixels= quantized. The letter "i" drawn on a piece of paper is not quantized = analog.
Quantized means that the physical quantity can only take on certain specific values, and not any value within a continuous range. This is often seen in phenomena like energy levels in atoms or the quantization of angular momentum in quantum mechanics.
