Work=force * distance
20,000 joules= 200 newtons * d
divide both sides by 200

100= distance

Explain why ventilation is very important if there is risk of exposure to random gas in your home school

bonufazy [111]

Ventilation is very important because it helps remove the gas form people’s homes and schools and it redirects the random gas outside so it is less likely to hurt people

The following table lists the work functions of a few common metals, measured in electron volts. Metal Φ(eV) Cesium 1.9 Potassiu

Citrus2011 [14]

A. Lithium

The equation for the photoelectric effect is:

$E=\phi + K$

where

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$ is the energy of the incident light, with h being the Planck constant, c being the speed of light, and $\lambda$ being the wavelength

$\phi$ is the work function of the metal (the minimum energy needed to extract one photoelectron from the surface of the metal)

K is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectron

In this problem, we have

$\lambda=190 nm=1.9\cdot 10^{-7}m$ , so the energy of the incident light is

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{1.9\cdot 10^{-7} m}=1.05\cdot 10^{-18}J$

Converting in electronvolts,

$E=\frac{1.05\cdot 10^{-18}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=6.5 eV$

Since the electrons are emitted from the surface with a maximum kinetic energy of

K = 4.0 eV

The work function of this metal is

$\phi = E-K=6.5 eV-4.0 eV=2.5 eV$

So, the metal is Lithium.

B. cesium, potassium, sodium

The wavelength of green light is

$\lambda=510 nm=5.1\cdot 10^{-7} m$

So its energy is

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{5.1\cdot 10^{-7} m}=3.9\cdot 10^{-19}J$

Converting in electronvolts,

$E=\frac{3.9\cdot 10^{-19}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=2.4 eV$

So, all the metals that have work function smaller than this value will be able to emit photoelectrons, so:

Cesium

Potassium

Sodium

C. 4.9 eV

In this case, we have

- Copper work function: $\phi = 4.5 eV$

- Maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons: K = 2.7 eV

So, the energy of the incident light is

$E=\phi+K=4.5 eV+2.7 eV=7.2 eV$

Then the copper is replaced with sodium, which has work function of

$\phi = 2.3 eV$

So, if the same light shine on sodium, then the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons will be

$K=E-\phi = 7.2 eV-2.3 eV=4.9 eV$
