I learned that at 0K atoms should stop moving. But do particles inside the nucleus still move ?
Where did you learn that?jk22 said:I learned that at 0K atoms should stop moving.
It is not.The Werewolf said:Temperature is the average *kinetic* (motion) energy of a system.
Everything is stationary in "its local frame" by definition.The Werewolf said:that would merely imply that the atom is completely stationary (in its local frame - I really don't want to get into relativity here :) )
0K, also known as absolute zero, is the lowest possible temperature in the Kelvin scale. It is significant in studying particles inside the nucleus because at this temperature, all molecular motion stops, allowing scientists to observe the behavior and properties of particles without any interference from temperature-related effects.
No, at 0K, all molecular motion stops, including the movement of particles inside the nucleus. This allows scientists to study the particles in a state of rest, which can provide valuable insights into their structure and behavior.
Scientists use various techniques such as cryogenic cooling, which involves using extremely low temperatures, to bring the particles to 0K. They also use specialized equipment like particle accelerators and detectors to observe and analyze the behavior of the particles.
Yes, with advanced technology and techniques, scientists can observe and study individual particles inside the nucleus at 0K. This allows them to gather important data and insights into the fundamental building blocks of matter.
At 0K, scientists have been able to observe the structure and behavior of particles inside the nucleus, providing evidence for the existence of subatomic particles such as protons and neutrons. They have also gained a deeper understanding of the strong nuclear force that holds the nucleus together.
