Answer:
a. 4.733 × 10⁻¹⁹ J = 2.954 eV b i. yes ii. 0.054 eV = 8.651 × 10⁻²¹ J
Explanation:
a. Find the energy of the incident photon.
The energy of the incident photon E = hc/λ where h = Planck's constant = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ Js, c = speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s and λ = wavelength of light = 420 nm = 420 × 10⁻⁹ m
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
E = hc/λ
= 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ Js × 3 × 10⁸ m/s ÷ 420 × 10⁻⁹ m
= 19.878 × 10⁻²⁶ Jm ÷ 420 × 10⁻⁹ m
= 0.04733 × 10⁻¹⁷ J
= 4.733 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
Since 1 eV = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ J,
4.733 × 10⁻¹⁹ J = 4.733 × 10⁻¹⁹ J × 1 eV/1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ J = 2.954 eV
b. i. Is this energy enough for an electron to leave the atom
Since E = 2.954 eV is greater than the work function Ф = 2.9 eV, an electron would leave the atom. So, the answer is yes.
ii. What is its maximum energy?
The maximum energy E' = E - Ф = 2.954 - 2.9
= 0.054 eV
= 0.054 × 1 eV
= 0.054 × 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
= 0.08651 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
= 8.651 × 10⁻²¹ J
Answer:
t = 2.55 s
Explanation:
Given that,
Height from which the baseball is thrown, h = 155 m
Initial velocity of the baseball, u = -25 m/s
We need to find the time taken by it to reach the ground. Let the time is t. Using equation of kinematics to find it as follows:
So, it will take 2.55 seconds to reach the ground.
Answer: 1479watts
Explanation:
Power is defined as the energy expended or work done in a specific time.
Mathematically,
Power = Workdone/time taken
Since work done is force × distance
Power = force × distance/time
Force = Mary's weight = 87N
Distance = height of the flight = 102meters
Time = 6.0seconds
Substituting in the formula we have;
Power = 87 × 102/6
Power = 1,479watts
Note that the time must be in seconds before usage. If its given in minutes, you will have to convert to seconds
We know, length of segment wave is half the wavelength .
Let, wavelength of wave is .
So, length of segment will be .
Now, it is given that the string vibrates in four segments.
So,
Speed can be given by :
Therefore, the wave speed in the string is 120 m/s.
