Mashutka [201]

Answer:9.17 m/s^2

Explanation:

mass=1200kg

Force=11 x 10^3 N

Acceleration=force ➗ mass

Acceleration=11 x 10^3 ➗ 1200

Describe how the number of photoelectrons emitted from a metal plate in the photoelectric effect would change if the following o
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

a) True. The number of photoelectrons is proportional to the amount (intensity) of the incident beam. From the expression above we see that threshold frequency cannot emit electrons.

b)   λ = c / f

Therefore, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and therefore the energy of the photoelectrons emitted,

c)  threshold energy

        h f =Ф

Explanation:

It's photoelectric effect was fully explained by Einstein by the expression

       Knox = h f - fi

Where K is the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, f the frequency of the incident radiation and fi the work function of the metal

a) True. The number of photoelectrons is proportional to the amount (intensity) of the incident beam. From the expression above we see that threshold frequency cannot emit electrons.

b) wavelength is related to frequency

         λ = c / f

Therefore, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and therefore the energy of the photoelectrons emitted, so there is a wavelength from which electrons cannot be removed from the metal.

c) As the work increases, more frequency radiation is needed to remove the electrons, because there is a threshold energy

        h f =Ф

A charge of -3.02 μC is fixed in place. From a horizontal distance of 0.0377 m, a particle of mass 9.43 x 10^-3 kg and charge -9
Andreyy89

Answer:

d = 0.0306 m

Explanation:

Here we know that for the given system of charge we have no loss of energy as there is no friction force on it

So we will have

U + K = constant

\frac{kq_1q_2}{r_1} + \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_2} + \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2

now we know when particle will reach the closest distance then due to electrostatic repulsion the speed will become zero.

So we have

\frac{(9 \times 10^9)(3.02 \mu C)(9.78 \mu C)}{0.0377} + \frac{1}{2}(9.43 \times 10^{-3})(80.4)^2 = \frac{(9 \times 10^9)(3.02 \mu C)(9.78 \mu C)}{r} + 0

7.05 + 30.5 = \frac{0.266}{r}

r = 7.08 \times 10^{-3} m

so distance moved by the particle is given as

d = r_1 - r_2

d = 0.0377 - 0.00708

d = 0.0306 m

An electron and a proton each have a thermal kinetic energy of 3kBT/2. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of each particle at a
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Given:

Thermal Kinetic Energy of an electron, KE_{t} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

k_{b} = 1.38\times 10^{- 23} J/k = Boltzmann's constant

Temperature, T = 1800 K

Solution:

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron, \lambda_{e}:

\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{p_{e}}

\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{m_{e}{v_{e}}              (1)

where

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{- 34}m^{2}kg/s

p_{e} = momentum of an electron

v_{e} = velocity of an electron

m_{e} = 9.1\times 10_{- 31} kg = mass of electon

Now,

Kinetic energy of an electron = thermal kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2}m_{e}v_{e}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

}v_{e} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{e}}}

}v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}}}

v_{e} = 2.86\times 10^{5} m/s                    (2)

Using eqn (2) in (1):

\lambda_{e} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}\times 2.86\times 10^{5}} = 2.55 nm

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of proton, \lambda_{e}:

\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{p_{p}}

\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{m_{p}{v_{p}}                             (3)

where

m_{p} = 1.6726\times 10_{- 27} kg = mass of proton

v_{p} = velocity of an proton

Now,

Kinetic energy of a proton = thermal kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2}m_{p}v_{p}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

}v_{p} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{p}}}

}v_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}}}

v_{p} = 6.674\times 10^{3} m/s                               (4)                    

Using eqn (4) in (3):

\lambda_{p} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}\times 6.674\times 10^{3}} = 5.94\times 10^{- 11} m = 0.0594 nm
