I think its B because classical physics describes light as waves

Classical physics considered light to behave as a wave in all environments; it had a set amplitude, frequency etc. The problem was that this meant that there was a continuous variation in its properties, hence if the amplitude of the light was incresed by a bit, a phenomenon like the phhotoelectric one would become only marginally more apparent. However, in this case, there is a cutoff point which means that the only-wave theory had to be wrong.

Por una resistencia de 10 Ω fluyen 5A. ¿Cuál será la diferencia de potencial que se le debe aplicar a la resistencia?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

V = 50 volts

Explanation:

Given that,

Resistance, R = 10 ohms

Current, I = 5 A

We need to find the potential difference across the circuit. We know that,

V = IR

Put all the values,

V = 5 × 10

V = 50 volts

Hence, the potential difference is equal to 50 volts.

When a man walks across the carpet and reaches for the door knob, why does he get shocked? doorknob Question 3 options: There is
Mumz [18]

The imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material or between materials is known as static electricity. When you grab a doorknob, electrons jump from your hand to the knob .which conducts electricity, giving you a shock.

<h3>What is static electricity?</h3>

The imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material or between materials is known as static electricity.

The charge will persist until it can be moved away by an electric current or an electrical discharge.

when we walk on the carpet with socks our feet slide electrons off the carpet.  it leads to leaving you with a slightly negative static charge.

When you grab a doorknob electrons jump from your hand to the knob which conducts electricity giving you a shock.

Due to the static electricity jump from your hand to the knob .which conducts electricity giving you a shock.
