Photoelectrons with a maximum speed of 7.00 · 105 m/s are ejected from a surface in the presence of light with a frequency of 8.

lord [1]

This is just testing your ability to recall that kinetic energy is given by:

<span>k.e. = ½mv² </span>

<span>where m is the mass and v is the velocity of the particle. </span>

<span>The frequency of the light is redundant information. </span>

<span>Here, you are given m = 9.1 * 10^-31 kg and v = 7.00 * 10^5 m/s. </span>
<span>Just plug in the values: </span>

<span>k.e. = ½ * 9.1 * 10^-31 * (7.00 * 10^5)² </span>
<span>k.e. = 2.23 * 10^-19 J
so it will be d:2.2*10^-19 J</span>

A force of 20.0 N is applied to a 3.00 kg object for 4.00 seconds. Calculate the impulse experienced by the object.

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Impulse = 80Ns

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 3kg

Force = 20N

Time = 4 seconds

To find the impulse experienced by the object;

Impulse = force * time

Impulse = 20*4

Impulse = 80Ns

Therefore, the impulse experienced by the object is 80 Newton-seconds.

Which object has the most gravitational potential energy?

Kipish [7]

Answer: An 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the product of mass of object, height of object and gravitational field.

So, formula to calculate gravitational potential energy is as follows.

U = mgh

where,

m = mass of object

g = gravitational field = $9.81 m/s^{2}$

h = height of object

(A) m = 5 kg and h = 2m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 98.1 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(B) m = 8 kg and h = 2 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 156.96 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(C) m = 8 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 235.44 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(D) m = 5 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 147.15 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

Thus, we can conclude that an 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.
