FAQ
What does MVP mean on this page?
An interactive sketch with formulas and parameters. Polished Ready labs are the full bench experience.
What does the “Nuclear structure model” lab practice?
Tune parameters and match readouts to the “Nuclear structure model” relations — useful for prep and demos.
What does the photoelectric effect show?
Light has particle aspects: photon energy hν and a cutoff frequency.
Is half-life a single nucleus’s lifetime?
No — it is statistical for a large sample; one nucleus decays randomly.
