Why won't a very bright beam of red light impart more energy to an ejected electron than a feeble beam of violet light?

1 answer:

This is related to the energy carried by photons of light the energy of each photon is proportional to the frequency of the light since red light has a lower frequency then violet light and photons of red light carry less energy than the photons of violet light as a result the red protons eject electrons that have less energy than the ejected electrons by Violet photons

An electric kettle. The input energy is 10 Joules. The useful output energy is heat 9

mina [271]

Answer:

Efficiency = 90 %

Wasted energy = 10 %

Explanation:

Since we have the input energy and useful output energy of the electric kettle, the only thing we are required to calculate here is its efficiency. This is gotten from

E = useful output energy/input energy × 100

E = 9/10 × 100 = 90 %

The percentage of wasted energy is

W = wasted energy/input energy × 100

W = 1/10 × 100

W = 10 %

A car is traveling at 70 km/h. It then uniformly decelerates to a complete stop in 12 s. Find its acceleration ( in m/s2 ).

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Acceleration will be $-1.620m/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given initial speed of the car is 70 km/hr

We know that 1 km = 1000 m

And 1 hour = 3600 sec

So $70km/hr=70\times \frac{1000m}{3600sec}=19.444m/sec$

It is given that car stops in 12 sec

So final speed of the car v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 12 sec

From first equation of motion v = u+at

So $0=19.444+a\times 12$

$a=\frac{-19.444}{12}=-1.620m/sec^2$ ( negative sign indicates that speed of the car will constantly decrease )

A uniform log of length L is inclined 30° from the horizontal when supported by a frictionless rock located 0.6L from its left e

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x = 0.974 L

Explanation:

given,

length of inclination of log = 30°

mass of log = 200 Kg

rock is located at = 0.6 L

L is the length of the log

mass of engineer = 53.5 Kg

let x be the distance from left at which log is horizontal.

For log to be horizontal system should be in equilibrium

∑ M = 0

mass of the log will be concentrated at the center

distance of rock from CM of log = 0.1 L

now,

∑ M = 0

$m_{log} g \times 0.1 L = m_{engineer} g \times (x - 0.6 L)$

$200 \times 0.1 L = 53.5 \times (x - 0.6 L)$

$0.374 L =x - 0.6 L$

x = 0.974 L

hence, distance of the engineer from the left side is equal to x = 0.974 L
