Difference between Intensity (physics) and Photon

Intensity (physics) vs. Photon

In physics, intensity is the power transferred per unit area, where the area is measured on the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the energy. The photon is a type of elementary particle, the quantum of the electromagnetic field including electromagnetic radiation such as light, and the force carrier for the electromagnetic force (even when static via virtual particles).

Similarities between Intensity (physics) and Photon

Intensity (physics) and Photon have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Electric field, Euclidean vector, Light, Optics, Refractive index, Speed of light, Vacuum, Wave, Wavelength.

Electric field

An electric field is a vector field surrounding an electric charge that exerts force on other charges, attracting or repelling them.

Euclidean vector

In mathematics, physics, and engineering, a Euclidean vector (sometimes called a geometric or spatial vector, or—as here—simply a vector) is a geometric object that has magnitude (or length) and direction.

Refractive index

In optics, the refractive index or index of refraction of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how light propagates through that medium.

Wave

In physics, a wave is a disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space, with little or no associated mass transport.

Wavelength

In physics, the wavelength is the spatial period of a periodic wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.

Intensity (physics) and Photon Comparison

Intensity (physics) has 44 relations, while Photon has 336. As they have in common 9, the Jaccard index is 2.37% = 9 / (44 + 336).
