Answer:

C. work function

Explanation:

In the photoelectric effect, the energy of the incident photon is used in part to extract the electron from the metal (and this energy is called work function) and the rest is converted into kinetic energy of the electron. In formula:

hf = \phi +K

where

hf is the energy of the incident photon, which is the product between h (the Planck constant) and f (the photon's frequency)

\phi is the work function

K is the kinetic energy of the photoelectron as it leaves the material

A quarterback back pedals 3.3 meters southward and then runs 5.7 meters northward. For this motion, what is the distance moved?
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The distance moved is 9 meters

The magnitude of the displacement is 2.4 meters

The direction of the displacement is northward

Explanation:

- <em><u>Distance</u></em> is the length of the actual path between the initial and the

  final position. Distance is a scalar quantity

- <u><em>Displacement</em></u> is the change in position, measuring from its starting

  position to the final position. Displacement is a vector quantity

The quarterback pedals 3.3 meters southward

That means it moves down 3.3 meters

Then runs 5.7 meters northward

That means it runs up 5.7 meters

The distance = 3.3 + 5.7 = 9 meters

<em></em>

<em>The distance moved is 9 meters</em>

It moves southward (down) for 3.3 meters and then moves northward

(up) for 5.7

It moves from zero to 3.3 down and then moves up to 5.7

The displacement = 5.7 - 3.3 = 2.4 meters northward

<em />

<em>The magnitude of the displacement is 2.4 meters</em>

<em>The direction of the displacement is northward</em>

Three joggers are running along straight lines as follows: Jogger A, with a mass of 55.2kg, is traveling along the line y=6.00m
frutty [35]

Answer:

L = - 1361.591 k Kgm/s

Explanation:

Given

mA = 55.2 Kg

vA = 3.45 m/s

rA = 6.00 m

mB = 62.4 Kg

vB = 4.23 m/s

rB = 3.00 m

mC = 72.1 Kg

vC = 4.75 m/s

rC = - 5.00 m

then we apply the equation

L =  (mv x r)

⇒  LA = mA*vA x rA = 55.2 *(3.45 i)x(6 j) = (1142.64 k) Kgm/s

⇒  LB = mB*vB x rB = 62.4 *(4.23 j)x(3 i) = (- 791.856 k) Kgm/s

⇒  LC = mC*vC x rC = 72.1 *(- 4.75 j)x(- 5 i) = (- 1712.375 k) Kgm/s

Finally, the total counterclockwise angular momentum of the three joggers about the origin is

L = LA + LB + LC = (1142.64 - 791.856 -1712.375) k  Kgm/s

L = - 1361.591 k Kgm/s
