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

Physics
1 answer:
oee [108]3 years ago
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.

A pencil is rolled off a table of height 0.92 m. If it has horizontal speed pf 1.4 m/s, how long does it take the pencil to reac
Alenkasestr [34]

The distance an object falls, from rest, in gravity is

                         D  =  (1/2) (G) (T²)

                        'T' is the number seconds it falls.

In this problem,

                         0.92 meter = (1/2) (9.8) (T²)

Divide each side by  4.9 :   0.92 / 4.9 = T²

Take the square root
of each side:                          √(0.92/4.9) = T

                                                  0.433 sec = T    

The horizontal speed doesn't make a bit of difference in
how long it takes to reach the floor.  BUT ... if you want to
know how far from the table the pencil lands, you can find
that with the horizontal speed.

The pencil is in the air for  0.433 second.
In that time, it travels
                                   (0.433s) x (1.4 m/s) = 0.606 meter

from the edge of the table.

a 20-kg object travelling at 20 m/s collides head on with an 18-kg object travelling at 17 m/s.If they were locked together afte
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

2.47 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum = Mass X Velocity

If they were locked together, it means its a perfectly inelastic collision. Therefore,

Total momentum before = Total momentum after

Total momentum before = (20 X 20) - (18 X 17)

= 94

Total momentum after = 94

Y = Object speed after collision

94 = (20+18)Y

Y = 2.47368421 m/s

the gravitational force between the sun and earth is larger than sun and the moon. what do you think the reason for this is?
Tems11 [23]

Answer: The greater an object's mass, the more gravitational force it exerts.

Explanation: So, to begin answering your question, Earth has a greater gravitational pull than the moon simply because the Earth is more massive. Sorry if I get this wrong. I am in 5th grade! ♥

A circular swimming pool has a diameter of 12 m. The circular side of the pool is 3 m high, and the depth of the water is 2.5 m.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Explanation:

Diameter of pool = 12 m

radius of pool, r = 6 m

Total height raised, h = 3 + 2.5 = 5.5 m

density of water, d = 1000 kg/m³

Mass of water, m = Volume of water x density

m = πr²h x d

m = 3.14 x 6 x 6 x 5.5 x 1000

m = 113040 kg

Work = m x g x h

W = 113040 x 9.8 x 5.5

W = 6092856 J
