Light of a given wavelength is used to illuminate the surface of a metal, however, no photoelectrons are emitted. In order to ca
Anastasy [175]

In order to cause electrons to be ejected from the surface of this metal you should use light of a shorter wavelength.

The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when electromagnetic radiation, such as light, hits a material. Electrons emitted in this manner are called photoelectrons. The phenomenon is studied in condensed matter physics, and solid state and quantum chemistry to draw inferences about the properties of atoms, molecules and solids. The effect has found use in electronic devices specialized for light detection and precisely timed electron emission.

This process is also often referred to as photoemission. In terms of their behaviour and their properties, photoelectrons are no different from other electrons. The prefix, photo-, simply tells us that the electrons have been ejected from a metal surface by incident light.

The photons of a light beam have a characteristic energy, called photon energy, which is proportional to the frequency of the light. In the photoemission process, when an electron within some material absorbs the energy of a photon and acquires more energy than its binding energy, it is likely to be ejected. If the photon energy is too low, the electron is unable to escape the material. Since an increase in the intensity of low-frequency light will only increase the number of low-energy photons, this change in intensity will not create any single photon with enough energy to dislodge an electron. Moreover, the energy of the emitted electrons will not depend on the intensity of the incoming light of a given frequency, but only on the energy of the individual photons.

An electric oven has a resistance of 201 ohms and a voltage of 220 V. How much current does it draw?
asambeis [7]

1.1 A. An electric oven with a resistance of 201Ω and a voltage of 220V drwa a current of 1.1 A.

The easiest way to solve this problem is using the Ohm's Law I = V/R.

An electric oven has R = 201Ω, and a drop of voltage V = 220v, solve using I = V/R:

I = 220V / 201Ω

I = 1.09 A ≅ 1.1 A

Two concentric current loops lie in the same plane. The smaller loop has a radius of 3.6 cm and a current of 12 A. The bigger lo
puteri [66]

Answer:

the radius of bigger loop = 6 cm

Explanation:

given,

two concentric current loops

smaller loop radius = 3.6 cm

]current in smaller loop = 12 A

current in the bigger loop = 20 A

magnetic field at the center of loop = 0

Radius of the bigger loop = ?

B_t = B_1 + B_2

0 = \dfrac{\mu_0I_1}{2R_1} +\dfrac{\mu_0I_2}{2R_2}

now, on solving

\dfrac{I_1}{R_1} = \dfrac{I_2}{R_2}

R_2 = I_2\dfrac{R_1}{I_1}

       = 20\times \dfrac{3.6}{12}

       = 6 cm

hence, the radius of bigger loop = 6 cm
