The energy of the photon emitted is about 1.60 × 10⁻²⁴ Joule

<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>

λ = 12.4 cm = 12.4 × 10⁻² m

h = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js

c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

<u>Unknown:</u>

E = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

E = h \times \frac{c}{\lambda}

E = 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times \frac{3 \times 10^8}{12.4 \times 10^{-2}}

E \approx 1.60 \times 10^{-24} ~ Joule

Find the magnitude of the resultant forces 6N and 8N inclined at an angle 240° to each<br>other.​
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

F = 7.2N

Explanation:

The resultant of two forces acting at some angle is given by using the vector addition as given below

F =√F1^2+F2^2+2F1F2cosθ

Where F1 = 6N and F2 = 8N

θ = 240°

Substituting the values into the equation above

F = √ 6^2+8^2+ 2(6×8)cos240

F =√ 36+64+96cos240

F = √ 100+96 ×-0.5

F = √ 100-48

F = √ 52

F = 7.211

F = 7.2N

the specific heat of water is 4.2 j/c. if it takes 31,500 joules to heat to warm 750 g of water, what was the temperature change
defon
The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is given by
Q=mC_s \Delta T
where
m is the mass of the substance
C_s the specific heat capacity
\Delta T the increase in temperature

In our problem, the mass of the water is m=750 g, the specific heat is C_s = 4.2 J/g ^{\circ}C and the amount of heat supplied is Q=31500 J, so if we re-arrange the previous formula we find the increase in temperature of the water:
\Delta T= \frac{Q}{m C_s}= \frac{31500 J}{(750 g)(4.20 J/g^{\circ} C)}=10^{\circ}C
