To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the change of Energy in photons and the conservation of energy.

From the theory we could consider that the energy change is subject to

\Delta E = E_0 -W_f

Where

E_0 =Initial Energy

W_f = Energy loses

Replacing we have that

\Delta E = 1.6-0.8

\Delta E = 0.8eV

Therefore the Kinetic energy of the electron once it has broken free of the metal surface is 0.8eV

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Option (c) : 20°C

Explanation:

t(final) =  \frac{w1 \times t1 + w2 \times t2}{w1 + w2}

T(final) = 500* 10 + 100*70/600 = 20°C

In a real world trampoline, how do gymnasts keep a constant bounce height
kkurt [141]
By using common factors of physics: weight, gravity, and stability. 
Weight would keep them at a constant height.
Gravity helps the weight and how much force it propels the person, or objects, into the air.
Stability helps adjust how much distance the person, or object, needs to be.

What do halo stars do differently from disk stars?
VLD [36.1K]

Answer: They orbit the galactic center with many different inclinations, while disk stars all orbit in nearly the same plane. ... They have vertical motions out of the plane, making them appear to bob up and down, but they never get "too far" from the disk.
