1) @Bystander: I have the idea about other effects like elastic scattering, inelastic scattering, ionization and bremsstrahlung caused by the decelerated electrons. However, I have no clue why heat is generated... 2) @M Quack: As mentioned in (1), there are various effects that take place to...

Hi, I am looking for the reasons for the generation of heat developed in a material due to electron bombardment. Searching in the internet gives me only the estimations of the heat developed, but not the physical reasons for the heat development. Appreciate if I am provided any insight into the...

Sorry to ask a very fundamental question: But I never understood this? We know that sometimes electron behaves as a particle and some times as a wave. But we know that the characterisitcs of particle are very different from wave. For ex. particle has mass but a wave doesn't have. So, what...

Let us assume that a body is to travel from point A to point E, with B, C, D being intermediate points. The points between A and E are equally spaced apart by a distance of 10 km. The body is SUPPOSED to travel AB, BC, CD, DE with speeds of 10 kmph, 20 kmph, 30 kmph, 40 kmph...
