How many photons with 10 ev are required to produce 20 joules of energy?

1 answer:

6 0

One electron Volt (eV) is equal to 1.6 x 10^-19 Joules. Therefore, 10 eV is equal to 1.6 x 10^-18 Joules. In order to produce 20 Joules of energy from 10 eV photons, we would require 20 x 1/(1.6 x 10^-18) = 1.25 x 10^19 particles. This demonstrates that in the world of particle physics, the Joule is a massive energy unit relative to the commonly used electron Volt.

Two electrons in a vacuum exert force of F = 3.8E-09 N on each other. They are then moved such that they are separated by x = 8.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

F_n = 5.65E-11 N

d = 1.20682E-31 m

Explanation:

F = 3.8E-09 N

where

m = Mass of electron = 9.109E−31 kilograms

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67E-11 m³/kgs²

x = Distance between them

$F=G\frac{m^2}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow 3.8E-09=G\frac{m^2}{x^2}$

For $F_n$

$F_n=G\frac{m^2}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow F_n=G\frac{m^2}{(8.2x)^2}\\\Rightarrow F_n=G\frac{m^2}{67.24x^2}$

Dividing the above equations we get

$\frac{F}{F_n}=\frac{G\frac{m^2}{x^2}}{G\frac{m^2}{67.24x^2}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{F}{F_n}=67.24\\\Rightarrow F_n=\frac{F}{67.24}\\\Rightarrow F_n=\frac{3.8E-09}{67.24}\\\Rightarrow F_n=5.65E-11\ N$

F_n = 5.65E-11 N

$F=G\frac{m^2}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{\frac{Gm^2}{F}}\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{\frac{G}{F}}m\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{\frac{6.67E-11}{3.8E-09}}9.109E-31\\\Rightarrow x=1.20682E-31\ m$

d = 1.20682E-31 m

Explain how the extension of a spring is determined

fgiga [73]

Answer:

For a given spring the extension is directly proportional to the force applied For example if the force is doubled, the extension doubles When an elastic object is stretched beyond its limit of proportionality the object does not return to its original length when the force is removed

Explain where most of the mass of an atom is located. Also, explain why some particles that make up the atom do not contribute m

Naddika [18.5K]

Within an atom, there are three elementary particles: the proton, neutron, and electron. Most of the mass of an atom is situated within the nucleus, which is the central part of the atom. It is made up of protons and neutrons, which are the heaviest subatomic particles. The electrons within the atom, orbit around the nucleus at a very far distance. Electrons are also a part of the lightest group of subatomic particles called leptons. That is why these electrons don't contribute much to the majority of an atoms mass. They are very light and they orbit at very far distances.
