The image of plane mirror is flipped bilaterally. So texts are also flipped and you get to see them in reverse order.

Mirrors reflect meaning shows what would be seen if everything was turned around, therefore, it shows text backwards because if it is turned around, it is in reverse order.

The work function for a metal surface is 4.98 eV. What is the largest wavelength of light in nm that will produce photoelectrons

bulgar [2K]

Answer: $\lambda =248.99 nm$

Explanation:

Given

Work function $\left ( \phi \right )=4.98\approx 1.602\times 10^{-19}\times 4.98$

$h=6.626\times 10^{-34} J$

$c=2.998\times 10^8$

$\phi =\frac{hc}{\lambda }$

$\lambda =\frac{hc}{\phi }$

$\lambda =\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 2.998\times 10^8}{4.98\times 1.602\times 10^{-19}}$

$\lambda =248.99 nm$

When a positive charge moves in the direction of the electric field, what happens to the electrical potential energy associated

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

B it decreases

Explanation:

the movement of a positive test charge in the direction of an electric field would be like a mass falling downward within Earth's gravitational field. Both movements would be like going with nature and would occur without the need of work by an external force. This motion would result in the loss of potential energy
