Question 4 How much time does it take to walk 8 km north at a velocity of 3.8 km/h?​
IrinaVladis [17]

Given parameters:

Displacement = 8km

Velocity  = 3.8km/h

Unknown:

time  = ?

Solution:

Velocity is displacement divided by time.

  Velocity  = \frac{displacement}{time}  

      Displacement  = velocity x time

Input the parameters:

              8  = 3.8  x time

 Time  = \frac{8}{3.8}   = 2.1s

The time taken is 2.1s

The maximum wavelength an electromagnetic wave can have and still eject an electron from a copper surface is 264 nm .What is the
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

4.71 eV

Explanation:

For an electromagnetic wave with wavelength

\lambda=264 nm = 2.64\cdot 10^{-7} m

the energy of the photons in the wave is given by

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{2.64\cdot 10^{-7}m}=7.53\cdot 10^{-19} J

where h is the Planck constant and c the speed of light. Therefore, this is the minimum energy that a photon should have in order to extract a photoelectron from the copper surface.

The work function of a metal is the minimum energy required by the incident light in order to extract photoelectrons from the metal's surface. Therefore, the work function corresponds to the energy we found previously. By converting it into electronvolts, we find:

E=\frac{7.53\cdot 10^{-19} J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=4.71 eV

Please help :( A ray of laser light strikes a glass surface at an angle θa = 22.5° to the normal. What is the angle θb of the re
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply law of refraction which is as follows

sin i / sinr = μ  , where i is angle of incidence , r is angle of refraction and μ is refractive index

here i = θa = 22.5°

r = θb

μ  = 1.77

sin22.5 / sinθb = 1.77

.3826 / sinθb = 1.77

sinθb = .216

θb  = 12.5 °.
