Physics: Why do we describe light by referring to its wavelength, but microwaves and radar pulses by referring to their frequency?

In physics, the description of the properties of light generally refers to its wavelength (nm), while in the range of microwaves and radio waves we refer to the frequency of a signal (e.g. kHz or...

Why are the velocities so high in my Boussinesq approximation Fluent simulation?

Hello, I have a mechanism where air rises due to convective flows. In this simulation, nothing is driving the air except this. I understand that the Boussinesq approximation only works for small...

How Relativistic effects is one reason for lanthanide contraction?

The Lanthanide contraction which is the decrease in ionic radii of the elements in the lanthanide series from atomic number 57, lanthanum, to 71, lutetium, is due to poor shielding of the 4f...

Is there a deep reason for using the squared modulus of the wave function as the probability density of the existence of the particle?

I think we were all surprised at the first time we got to know quantum mechanics that the squared modulus of the wave function is the probability density of the existence of the particle? The role...

Should we reduce the standard unit of length to 0.31951540592 meter ?

The reasoning behind this question is to align the ratios of the proton potential in energy per charge to the speed of light in distance per time. As these two dimensions appear to be related,...

No streamlines present in a small region inside a flow. This means exactly what?

No streamlines present means whether the flow is getting obstructed there and the velocity inside the region is zero? Or else, the fluid is trapped inside that region with a nonzero velocity?...

i think is something about valence charge density of the atoms or molecules, can be used to analyse the charge transfer .. I am not very sure too..maybe you can check for the discussion in the link below
