Aluminium has a work function of 4. 08 eV. The cutoff wavelength and cutoff frequency for the photoelectric effect is 303.9nm and 911.7× 10¹⁷ s⁻¹ respectively.

Work Function is the minimum energy required to eject an electron from a photoelectric material.

Cutoff Wavelength is the maximum wavelength below which electron will be ejected

Cutoff Frequency is the minimum frequency required to eject electron.

Let the work function of Aluminium be Φ

Given,  work function Φ = 4.08eV

We know that hc/λ =  Φ

where, h is Planck constant

c is speed of light

λ is wavelength of light used

Hence, on subsitution

1240 / λ = 4.08 eV          (hc = 1240)

⇒ λ = 303.9 nm

Hence, cutoff wavelength used is 303.9 nm

We know that ν = c/λ

ν = 3 × 10⁸ / 303.9

⇒ ν = 911.7 × 10¹⁷ s⁻¹

Hence, cutoff frequency used is 911.7 × 10¹⁷ s⁻¹

A system gains 1500 J of heat, while the internal energy of the system increases by 4500 J and the volume decreases by . Assume
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Hence the pressure is 3\times 10^5 Pa

Explanation:

Given data

Q=1500 J   system gains heat

ΔV=- 0.010 m^3     there is a decrease in volume

ΔU= 4500 J        internal energy decrease

We know work done is

W= Q- ΔU

=1500-4500= -3000 J

The change in the volume at constant pressure is

ΔV= W/P

there fore P = W/ΔV= -3000/-0.01= 3×10^5

Hence the pressure is 3\times 10^5 Pa

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10, 000 N/m and norminal.Length of 0.50.What is the togal len
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Total length of spring 0.647 m

Explanation:

We have given mass of the person m = 150 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Spring constant k = 10000 N/m

Nominal length of spring = 0.50

According to hook's law

mg=kx

150\times 9.8=10000\times x

x = 0.147 m

So total length of spring = 0.50+0.147 = 0.647 m

An object has 1200 J of gravitational potential energy when it is dropped. Right when the object hits the ground how much kineti
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The kinetic energy is 1200 J

Explanation:

The Principle of Conservation of energy states that "energy is neither created nor destroyed, it is transformed".

This means that energy can be transformed from one form to another, but the total amount of energy always remains constant, that is, the total energy is the same before and after each transformation.

The mechanical energy of a body or a physical system is the sum of its kinetic energy and the potential energy. According to the Principle of Conservation of Energy for mechanical energy, the total mechanical energy that a body possesses is constant at every instant of time.

Since mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy that a body possesses, the only way to stay constant is that:

  • when the kinetic energy increases the gravitational potential energy decreases,
  • when gravitational potential energy increases, kinetic energy decreases.

Due to the Principle of Conservation of Energy you can say that the gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.  So Gravitational potential energy at the top = kinetic energy at the bottom

<u><em>The kinetic energy is 1200 J</em></u>
