Answer:

D Photoelectric effect

Explanation:

When light of a certain frequency which is above the cut off frequency is incident on a metal, electrons are emitted from its surface. These electrons are called photo electrons. The number of photo electrons released will depend on the intensity of the incident light. This flow or release of electrons develops an emf and is called as the photoelectric current.

Applications of photoelectric current include photo conductive cells, photoemissive cells, solar cells etc.

The one that does that is the photoelectric effect. This allows the sun to hit the surface and produces enough energy for electrons to be knocked off the atom and allows a current to move.

What is the mass of a person who weighs 653 N at earths surface

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

66.6 kg

Explanation:

The weight of a person at Earth's surface is given by

$W=mg$

where

m is the mass of the person

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

The person in the problem has a weight of

W = 653 N

Therefore, we can rearrange the equation to find his mass:

$m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{653}{9.8}=66.6 kg$

A golfer gives a ball a maximum initial speed of 51.5 m/s. how far does it go

nata0808 [166]

<u>Answer:</u>

Golf ball will go a maximum of 270.36 meter.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Projectile motion has two types of motion Horizontal and Vertical motion.

Vertical motion:

We have equation of motion, v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

Considering upward vertical motion of projectile.

In this case, Initial velocity = vertical component of velocity = u sin θ, acceleration = acceleration due to gravity = -g $m/s^2$ and final velocity = 0 m/s.

0 = u sin θ - gt

t = u sin θ/g

Total time for vertical motion is two times time taken for upward vertical motion of projectile.

So total travel time of projectile = 2u sin θ/g

Horizontal motion:

We have equation of motion , $s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$ , s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

In this case Initial velocity = horizontal component of velocity = u cos θ, acceleration = 0 $m/s^2$ and time taken = 2u sin θ /g

So range of projectile, $R=ucos\theta*\frac{2u sin\theta}{g} = \frac{u^2sin2\theta}{g}$

Now in the given problem

A golfer gives a ball a maximum initial speed of 51.5 m/s. how far does it go

u = 51.5 m/s, for maximum range θ = 45⁰

So maximum distance reached = $\frac{51.5^2sin(2*45)}{9.81}=270.36 meter$

So it will go a maximum of 270.36 meter.

What is the difference between a muscular strength exercise and a muscular endurance exercise?

joja [24]

Answer:

What is the difference between muscular strength and muscular endurance? Muscular strength is a measure of how much force you can exert in one repetition. Muscular endurance refers to the ability to perform a specific muscular action for a prolonged period of time.

A mass weighing 4 pounds is attached to a spring whose constant is 2 lb/ft. The medium offers a damping force that numerically e

Neko [114]

Answer:

the time at which it passes through the equilibrum position is:

t = 0.1 second

Explanation:

given

w= 4pounds

k(spring constant) = 2lb/ft

g(gravitational constant) = 10m/s² = 32ft/s²

β(initial point above equilibrum) = 1

velocity = 14ft/s

attached is an image showing the calculations, because some of the parameters aren't convenient to type.
