Which property of laser light is NOT correctly defined/described? polarized: electric field oscillates between two perpendicular planes collimated: parallel rays of light extremely bright: high power at one wavelength monochromatic: emits one wavelength of light
Compton effect
The incoming photons' energy must be in the range of an X-ray frequency to generate the Compton effect. The electron does not lose enough energy that reduces the wavelength of scattered photons towards the visible spectrum. As a result, with visible lights, the Compton effect is missing.
Recoil Velocity
The amount of backward thrust or force experienced by a person when he/she shoots a gun in the forward direction is called recoil velocity. This phenomenon always follows the law of conservation of linear momentum.
