When it comes to horizontal projectiles, the formula for time is:

t =  \sqrt{ \frac{2dy}{g} }

Where:
dy = vertical distance or height
g = acceleration due to gravity
t = time

Based on the problem, we know that the height at which the tennis ball was thrown is 78.4 m and the acceleration due to gravity is a constant 9.8m/s2. All you need to do is input that into our equation:
t = \sqrt{ \frac{2dy}{g} }
t = \sqrt{ \frac{(2)(78.4m)}{9.8m/s^{2}} }
t = \sqrt{ \frac{156.8m}{9.8m/s^{2}} }
t = \sqrt{16s^{2}}
t = 4s

The time it would take is 4 seconds.

Electrons are ejected from a metallic surface with speeds of up to 4.60 3 105 m/s when light with a wavelength of 625 nm is used
Darya [45]

Complete question:

Electrons are ejected from a metallic surface with speeds ranging up to 4.60 x10⁵ m/s when light with a wavelength of 625nm is used. (a) What is the work function of the surface? (b) What is the cutoff frequency for this surface?

Answer:

Part(a) The work function of the surface is 22.177 x 10⁻²⁰ J = 1.384 eV

Part(b) The cutoff frequency for this surface is 3.347 x 10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

The kinetic energy (KE) of the emitted photon:

KE = 0.5mv²

m is mass of electron = 9.1 X 10⁻³¹ kg

KE = 0.5 * 9.1 X 10⁻³¹  * (460000)² = 9.628 X 10⁻²⁰ J

in eV = 9.628 X 10⁻²⁰ J x 6.242 X 10¹⁸ ev = 0.601 eV

The photon energy of the incoming radiation:

E = hf = hc/λ

c is speed of light (photon) = 3 x 10⁸

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

E = (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ *3 x 10⁸) /(625 X 10⁻⁹)

E = 31.805 X 10⁻²⁰ J

in eV = 31.805 X 10⁻²⁰ J x  6.242 X 10¹⁸ ev = 1.985 eV

Part (a) the work function of the surface

KE = hf - W

where;

W is work function

W = hf - KE

W =  31.805 X 10⁻²⁰ J - 9.628 X 10⁻²⁰ J = 22.177 x 10⁻²⁰ J

in eV = 22.177 x 10⁻²⁰ J x 6.242 X 10¹⁸ ev = 1.384 eV

Part(b) the cutoff frequency for this surface

W =hf

f = W/h

f = (22.177 x 10⁻²⁰ J)/(6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s)

f = 3.347 x 10¹⁴ Hz

The surface of the paper is phosphorescent. When light shines on it, some of the energy is absorbed and re-emitted slowly over t
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Recall that the hierarchy of wavelength color from minimum wavelength to maximum wavelength is:

V < I < B < G < Y < O < R; and

E  \ \alpha  \ \dfrac{1}{\lambda}

As a result, blue light has a higher energy level than green and red light.

As a result, the surface glows due to the blue LED. The green LED, on the other hand, would not allow the surface to glow as much as the red LED, which has a lower energy level when compared to the green light. As a result, the red LED would not allow the surface to glow as well.
