Monochromatic light is incident on a metal surface, and electrons are ejected. If the intensity of the light increases, what wil

Answer:The rate of ejection of photoelectrons will increase

Explanation:

If the frequency of incident monochromatic light is held constant and its intensity is increased, the rate of ejection of photoelectrons from the metal surface increases with increase in intensity of the monochromatic light. More current flows due to more ejection of photoelectrons.

What is the purpose of a kink in a thermometer?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

A 'kink' in the glass tube which breaks the mercury as it contracts, storing the highest temperature reading. The glass tube is shaped like a lens to magnify the thin mercury thread. Shaking the thermometer resets the mercury back into the bulb.

A 10-cm-long spring is attached to theceiling. When a 2.0 kg mass is hung from it,the spring stretches to a length of 15 cm.a.Wh
alekssr [168]

(a) 392 N/m

Hook's law states that:

F=k\Delta x (1)

where

F is the force exerted on the spring

k is the spring constant

\Delta x is the stretching/compression of the spring

In this problem:

- The force exerted on the spring is equal to the weight of the block attached to the spring:

F=mg=(2.0 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=19.6 N

- The stretching of the spring is

\Delta x=15 cm-10 cm=5 cm=0.05 m

Solving eq.(1) for k, we find the spring constant:

k=\frac{F}{\Delta x}=\frac{19.6 N}{0.05 m}=392 N/m

(b) 17.5 cm

If a block of m = 3.0 kg is attached to the spring, the new force applied is

F=mg=(3.0 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=29.4 N

And so, the stretch of the spring is

\Delta x=\frac{F}{k}=\frac{29.4 N}{392 N/m}=0.075 m=7.5 cm

And since the initial lenght of the spring is

x_0 = 10 cm

The final length will be

x_f = x_0 +\Delta x=10 cm+7.5 cm=17.5 cm
