The threshold frequency fo of Cesium is 4.83 × 10¹⁴ Hz

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The term of package of electromagnetic wave radiation energy was first introduced by Max Planck. He termed it with photons with the magnitude is:

\large {\boxed {E = h \times f}}

<em>E = Energi of A Photon ( Joule )</em>

<em>h = Planck's Constant ( 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js )</em>

<em>f = Frequency of Eletromagnetic Wave ( Hz )</em>

The photoelectric effect is an effect in which electrons are released from the metal surface when illuminated by electromagnetic waves with large enough of radiation energy.

\large {\boxed {E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \Phi}}

\large {\boxed {E = qV + \Phi}}

<em>E = Energi of A Photon ( Joule )</em>

<em>m = Mass of an Electron ( kg )</em>

<em>v = Electron Release Speed ( m/s )</em>

<em>Ф = Work Function of Metal ( Joule )</em>

<em>q = Charge of an Electron ( Coulomb )</em>

<em>V = Stopping Potential ( Volt )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

<u>Given:</u>

Φ = 2.1 eV = 2 × 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ Joule = 3.20 × 10⁻¹⁹ Joule

<u>Unknown:</u>

fo = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

\Phi = h \times fo

3.20 \times 10^{-19} = 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times fo

fo = ( 3.20 \times 10^{-19} ) \div ( 6.63 \times 10^{-34} )

\large {\boxed{fo = 4.83 \times 10^{14} ~ Hz} }

The threshold frequency of the cesium is \fbox{\begin\\5.06 \times {10^{14}}\,{\text{Hz}}\end{minispace}}.

Further Explanation:

The threshold energy is the amount of energy required by an electron so that it is ejected from the surface of the material.

Concept:

The photoelectric effect is the process in which emission of the electron from the surface of material when they acquire sufficient amount of energy from the photon (i.e. the packets of energy) to release from the surface of the material.

The threshold energy of the electron can be expressed as:

\fbox{\begin\\E = {E_k} + \phi\end{minispace}}

Here, E is the amount of energy supplied to the surface by a photon, {E_k} is the amount of kinetic energy of electron after emission and \phi is the work function of the material.

The work function of a surface is the minimum amount of energy to be incident on the surface of a metal such that it can emit the electron.

The work function of material can be expressed as:

\phi=h{\nu _0}

Here, {\nu _0} is the threshold frequency of the electron.

The work function of the cesium is 2.1\,{\text{eV}}.

Convert the work function in eV to Joules.

\begin{aligned}\phi&=2.1{\mkern1mu} {\text{eV}}\left({1.6 \times{{10}^{ - 19}}}\right)\,{\text{J}}\\&=3.36\times10^{-19}\text{ J}\\\end{aligned}

Substitute 3.36\times{10^{-19}}\,{\text{J}} for \phi and 6.63\times{10^{-34}\text{ kg.m}^2/\text{s} for h in expression for work function.

\begin{aligned}3.36\times{10^{-19}}&=\left({6.63\times{{10}^{-34}}}\right){\nu_0}\\{\nu_0}&=\frac{{3.36\times{{10}^{-19}}}}{{6.63\times{{10}^{-34}}}}\\&=5.06\times{10^{14}}\,{\text{Hz}}\\\end{aligned}

Thus, the threshold frequency of cesium is 5.06 \times {10^{14}}\,{\text{Hz}}.

in positive numbers less than 1, the zeros between the decimal point and a non-zero number are _______ significant?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

If a number of less than 1, then the number has a decimal point like

0.085, 0.008 e.t.c.

The zeros before the none zero digit are insignificant. The significant figure is 8 and 5.

But if there a zero between the none zero e.g. 0.0087056

Here the zero between 7 and 5 is significant, then the significant numbers are 8,7,0,5,6

But if the zero is not in between the none zero digit, then the zero is insignificant

E.g 0.05800

The last two zero is insignificant, the significant number is 5 and 8

So, If a positive numbers less than 1, the zeros between the decimal point and a non-zero number are NOT significant.

Physics is really confusing...is there anyone that can show it to me?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

1.0×10³ N

Explanation:

μs is the static coefficient of friction.  That's the friction that acts on a stationary (non-moving) object when being pushed or pulled.

μk is the kinetic coefficient of friction.  That's the friction that acts on a moving object.

To budge the pig (while it's still stationary), we need to overcome the static friction.

F = N μs

For a non-moving object on level ground, the normal force N equals the weight.

F = mg μs

Given m = 130 kg and μs = 0.80:

F = (130 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (0.80)

F = 1019.2 N

Rounded to two significant figures, the force needed to budge the pig is 1.0×10³ N.

An electron de-excites from the fourth quantum level to the third and then directly to the first. Two frequencies of light are e
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The answer is explained below.

Explanation:

The energy emitted during the de-excitation of an electron from a higher energy level to a lower energy level is directly proportional to the frequency of the emitted light.

Here, the total sum of the energies of 2 frequencies of light emitted in different stages is equal to the energy of a single frequency of light during the de-excitation of fourth level to ground level directly.

Hence the total sum of of the frequencies of 2 lights emitted in different stages is equal to the frequency of single frequency of light emitted during the de-excitation  from fourth level to ground level directly.

The some of the energies of 2 frequencies emitted by one electron is equal to the energy of a single frequency when electron jumps directly.
