B) The object's velocity doubled.
Explanation:
The graph is missing: find it in attachment.
The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. It is calculated as
where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
We notice that:
- The kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass
- The kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity
In the graph, one of the two quantities (either mass or speed) is represented on the x-axis, while the quantity on the y-axis is the kinetic energy.
First of all, we notice that the relationship is not linear: this means that the quantity on the x-axis cannot be the mass, so it must be the velocity.
Moreover, we notice that when the quantity on the x-axis increases from 1 to 2 (so, it doubles), the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 4. This means that the object's velocity has doubled, therefore
B) The object's velocity doubled.

Answer:
Minimum number of photons required is 1.35 x 10⁵
Explanation:
Given:
Wavelength of the light, λ = 850 nm = 850 x 10⁻⁹ m
Energy of one photon is given by the relation :
....(1)
Here h is Planck's constant and c is speed of light.
Let N be the minimum number of photons needed for triggering receptor.
Minimum energy required for triggering receptor, E₁ = 3.15 x 10⁻¹⁴ J
According to the problem, energy of N number of photons is equal to the energy required for triggering, that is,
E₁ = N x E
Put equation (1) in the above equation.
Substitute 3.15 x 10⁻¹⁴ J for E₁, 850 x 10⁻⁹ m for λ, 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ J s for h and 3 x 10⁸ m/s for c in the above equation.
N = 1.35 x 10⁵
