When resistors are connected in series, they act like
a single resistor whose resistance is their sum. 

100 ohms and 400 ohms, connected in series, look like
a single resistor of 500 ohms.

           Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

                        = (60 volts) / (500 ohms) = 0.12 A.

Current is measured by connecting a meter in series
with an energized component.  In other words, a break
is made in the circuit, the meter is connected in the break,
and the current to be measured literally flows through the meter.</span>

Light with a wavelength of 495 nm is falling on a surface and electrons with a maximum kinetic energy of 0.5 eV are ejected. Wha
devlian [24]

Answer:

To increase the maximum kinetic energy of electrons to 1.5 eV, it is necessary that ultraviolet radiation of 354 nm falls on the surface.

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the work function of the element. The maximum kinetic energy as a function of the wavelength is given by:

K_{max}=\frac{hc}{\lambda}-W

Here h is the Planck's constant, c is the speed of light, \lambda is the wavelength of the light and W the work function of the element:

W=\frac{hc}{\lambda}-K_{max}\\W=\frac{(4.14*10^{-15}eV\cdot s)(3*10^8\frac{m}{s})}{495*10^{-9}m}-0.5eV\\W=2.01eV

Now, we calculate the wavelength for the new maximum kinetic energy:

W+K_{max}=\frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\lambda=\frac{hc}{W+K_{max}}\\\lambda=\frac{(4.14*10^{-15}eV\cdot s)(3*10^8\frac{m}{s})}{2.01eV+1.5eV}\\\lambda=3.54*10^{-7}m=354*10^{-9}m=354nm

This wavelength corresponds to ultraviolet radiation. So, to increase the maximum kinetic energy of electrons to 1.5 eV, it is necessary that ultraviolet radiation of 354 nm falls on the surface.

What is a generator and how does it create energy?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

<em>Hello! Todobaku here!!</em>

Explanation:

An electricity generator is a device that converts a form of energy into electricity. Generators operate because of the relationship between magnetism and electricity. Generators that convert kinetic (mechanical) energy into electrical energy produce nearly all of the electricity that consumers use.
