Explanation:
h = Planck's constant = 
c = Speed of light = 
= Threshold wavelength = 459 nm
Work function is given by

Converting to eV


The work function W0 of this metal is 2.7067 eV
Answer:
<em>The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4</em>
<em>Correct choice: B.</em>
Explanation:
<u>Circular Motion</u>
The circular motion is described when an object rotates about a fixed point called center. The distance from the object to the center is the radius. There are other magnitudes in the circular motion like the angular speed, tangent speed, and centripetal acceleration. The formulas are:


If the speed is doubled and the radius is the same, then


The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4
Correct choice: B.
The right hand rule to find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:
- The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
- The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.
The magnetic force is given by the vector product of the velocity and the magnetic field.
F = q v x B
Where the bolds indicate vectors, F is the force, q the charge on the particle, v the velocity and B the magnetic field.
In the vector product, the vectors are perpendicular, which is why the right-hand rule has been established, see attached:
- The thumb points in the direction of speed.
- Fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field.
- The palm is in the direction of the force if the charge is positive and in the opposite direction if the charge is negative.
They indicate that the bar is dropped, therefore its speed is vertical and downwards, it moves to the left therefore this is the direction of the force, we use the right hand rule, the magnetic field must be horizontal, we have two possibilities:
- If the charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
- If the charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is, horizontal away from us
In conclusion using the right hand rule we can find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:
- The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.
- The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.

I would assume that the magnesium would have to come into contact with an ion in order to become a magnesium ion.
