Which phenomenon generates electric current?

Physics

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.

EleoNora [17]

Distance is indeed a scalar amount that also refers to "<em><u>how the ground an object has encased</u></em>", and the Displacement is a vector thing that leads "<em><u>to the extent to which an object is located</u></em>", and the further calculation can be defined as follows:

Given:

distance= 70 miles

displacement = 20 miles

  • Displacement formula: \bold{Velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}}
  • Distance formula: \bold{Distance = speed \times time}

Why is it so difficult for astronomers to see new stars in the process of birth?
vekshin1
Birth happens very quickly, so it is hard to "catch" stars in the act. - most stars are born inside dusty clouds, which block any light that may be coming from the stars.

The predictions of Rutherford's scattering formula failed to correspond with experimental data when the energy of the incoming a
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The radius of the gold nucleus is 7.1x10⁻¹⁵m

Explanation:

The nearest distance is:

r=\frac{kze^{2} }{mpV^{2} } (eq. 1)

Where

z = atomic number of gold = 79

e = electron charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C

k = electrostatic constant = 9x10⁹Nm²C²

energy of the particle = 32 MeV = 5.12x10⁻¹²J

At the potential energy is zero, all the energy will be kinetic energy:

E_{k} =\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}

Where

m = 4 mp = mass of proton

5.12x10^{-12} =\frac{1}{2} *4*m_{p}* V^{2} \\m_{p}* V^{2} = 2.56x10^{-12}

Replacing in equation 1

r=\frac{9x10^{9}*79*(1.6x10^{-19})^{2}   }{2.56x10^{-12} } =7.1x10^{-15} m

Engineers are trying to improve a race car. Their goal is to increase the acceleration of the car using the same engine. Which c
Andru [333]

To increase the acceleration of the car using the same engine, the   mass of the car must be decreased.

<h3>What is Newton's first law of motion</h3>

Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest or uniform motion in a straight line will continue in that path unless acted upon by an external force.

The first law is also called the law of inertia because it depends on the mass of the object. The greater the mass, the greater the inertia and more reluctant the object will be to move.

Thus, to increase the acceleration of the car using the same engine, the   mass of the car must be decreased.

a = F/m

Two vectors A and B are at right angles to each other. The magnitude of A is 3.00. What should be the length of B, so that the m
AfilCa [17]

Answer: length of B =4.00

Explanation:

for  the vectors A and B and the angle between them as  x.

Magnitude of the sum of A and B is  given as = √(A²+B²+2ABcosx

where

Magnitude of A  = 3.00

Magnitude of the sum of A and B is  5.00

5.00=√(A²+B²+2ABcos90°

5.00= √3² +b² +0

5²= 3² +b²

25=9+b²

b²= 25-9

b² = 16

b=  √16

b= 4
