In a particular experiment to study the photoelectric effect, the frequency of the incident light and the temperature of the met

al are held constant. Assuming that the light incident on the metal surface causes electrons to be ejected from the metal, what happens if the intensity of the incident light is increased?

Answer:

Explanation:

When a light beam of suitable frequency falls on metal surface, the electrons from the metal surface ejects, this phenomenon is called photo electric effect and the particular minimum frequency is called cut off frequency or threshold frequency.

When the intensity of incident radiation increases, the photo electric current also increases.

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the ejected electrons increases.

Explanation:

As we know that electrons are only ejected from a metal surface if the frequency of the incident light increases the work function of the metal. If the frequency of the incident light is less than the work function of the metal no matter how intense the beam the electrons will not be ejected from the surface.

Using conservation of energy principle we have

E_{incident}=h\nu +\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

If we increase the intensity  of incident light the term on the LHS of the above equation increases this increase appears in the kinetic energy term in RHS of the equation since h\times \nu remains constant.

A very small object with mass 8.30×10-9 kg and positive charge 6.90×10-9 C is projected directly toward a very large insulating
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

41.4496148484\ m/s

Explanation:

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

\sigma = Surface charge density = 5.9\times 10^{-8}\ C/m^2

\Delta x = 0.57-0.26

q = Charge = 6.9\times 10^{-9}\ C

m = Mass of object = 8.3\times 10^{-9}\ kg

Electric field due to a sheet is given by

E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{5.9\times 10^{-8}}{2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}\\\Rightarrow E=3333.33\ V/m

Electric field is given by

E=\dfrac{V}{d}

Voltage is given by

V=E\Delta x

Kinetic energy is given by

K=qV

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=qE\Delta x\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2qE\Delta x}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 6.9\times 10^{-9}\times 3333.33\times (0.57-0.26)}{8.3\times 10^{-9}}}\\\Rightarrow v=41.4496148484\ m/s

The initial speed of the object is 41.4496148484\ m/s
