Light of frequency 2.5 x 1015 Hz illuminates a

Physics
1 answer:
Nikitich [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

h f = W + KE

Input energy equals work function plus KE of emitted electron

W = 6.63E-34 * 2.5E15 - 6.3 * 1.6E-19

W = 6.63 * 2.5 * 10^-19 - 10.1 * E-19 ev     (1ev = 1.6E-19 J)

W = (16.6 - 10.1)E-19 = 6.5E-19 J

h f = 6.5E-19 J        for electrons to be emitted with zero KE

f = 6.5E-19 / 6.63E-34 = .98E-15 / sec = 9.8E-14 / sec  (threshold)

8. What current flows through a 1.15 kW electric fire at a potential difference of
Vilka [71]

Answer:

I = 5[amp]

Explanation:

Electrical power is defined as the product of voltage by current.

P=V*I

where:

P = power = 1150 [W]

V = voltage = 230 [V]

I = current [amp]

Now replacing:

1150=230*I\\I=1150/230\\I=5[amp]

A 15 [amp] fuse must be used. Always the fuse must be larger than the operating current, to protect the equipment from very high currents. above 15 [amp]

How is the current controlled for a given voltage
Leni [432]

Answer:

The current can be controlled by modifying the resistance value

Explanation:

The current can be controlled by modifying the resistance value, usually a variable resistance device called potentiometer is used. This can be observed mathematically using the ohm law which is defined as voltage equal to the current product by resistance.

V = I*R

where:

I = current [amp]

R = resistance [ohm]

V = voltage [volt]

We can see that if we reduce the resistance the current will be increased

I = v / R

And if we amplify the resistance (R) the current will be diminished

Two brothers are digging a drainage ditch for a french drain around their home. The ditch is to be 2 feet deep, 1 foot wide, and
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The two brothers working together will take 7.7 hours to dig the entire ditch.

Explanation:

Assuming T to be the total amount of time taken by both brothers working together, we can say

  • 1/T ditch/hour to be the rate at which both brothers dig the ditch  together
  • 1/14 ditch/hour to be the rate at which the older brother digs the ditch
  • 1/17 ditch/hour to be the rate at which the younger brother digs the ditch

So the rate at which both brothers dig the ditch can be calculated by the equation,

1/T = 1/14 + 1/17

T = 238/31 = 7.7 (rounded off to the nearest tenth)

How Many Significant Digits are in 0.0217​
Bumek [7]

Answer:

<em>The number 0.0217 has 3 significant digits</em>

Explanation:

<u>Significant Digits </u>

These are digits that contribute to the significance of the number. Some rules apply to discard the non-significant digits like:

  • Leading zeros
  • Trailing zeros (with exceptions)

Our number is 0.0217 has two leading zeros before the 2 because they only occupy space to indicate the order of magnitude of the number. Only the 2,1,7 are significant digits, thus

The number 0.0217 has 3 significant digits

The SI system uses three base units. Question 6 options: True False
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The answer is false

Explanation:

Though the mostly used SI unit of measurement or the most popular units are the

Length,

Time and

Mass

i.e meter (m), seconds (s), kilogram (kg)

Aside all the above stated units for measurements there are other four basic units which are itemized  bellow.

they are

1. Amount of substance - mole (mole)

2. Electric current - ampere (A)

3. Temperature - kelvin (K)

4. Luminous intensity - candela (cd)
