Why does light of a certain frequency need to be used to produce a current in the photoelectric effect?

1 answer:

3 0

The reason to why does light of a certain frequency need to be used to produce a current in the photoelectric effect is A. The frequency of light must be the same as the frequency of vibration of the atoms in the substance to cause a current.

Falling raindrops frequently develop electric charges. Does this create noticeable forces between the droplets? Suppose two 1.8

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

a) $F=2.048\times 10^{-7}\ N$

b) $a=0.1138\ m.s^{-2}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of raindrops, $m=1.8\times 10^{-6}\ kg$

charge on the raindrops, $q=+21\times 10^{-12}\ C$

horizontal distance between the raindrops, $r=0.0044\ m$

From the Coulomb's Law the force between the charges is given as:

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} .\frac{q_1.q_2}{r^2}$

we have:

$\epsilon_0=8.854\times 10^{-12}\ C^2.N^{-1}.m^{-2}$

Now force:

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}} .\frac{21\times 10^{-12}\times 21\times 10^{-12}}{0.0044^2}$

$F=2.048\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Now the acceleration on the raindrops due to the electrostatic force:

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

$a=\frac{2.048\times 10^{-7}}{1.8\times 10^{-6}}$

$a=0.1138\ m.s^{-2}$

State the condition for maximum current to be drawn from the cell

larisa86 [58]

Use the equation I=V/R where I is current and V is the voltage plus R is the resistance so when voltage is the highest and resistance is lowest the current is the highest

How many electrons pass through a standard 60 watt light bulb in one second?

timofeeve [1]

A standard 60 W light bulb has a voltage of 130 volts. So, we use this conversion, the Faraday's constant which is equal to approximately 96,500 Coulombs per mole electron, and the Avogadro's number equal to 6.022×10²³ particles/mole . The solution is as follows:

W = Energy/time
60 W = x J/1 s
x = 60 J = 60 C·V

(60 C·V)*(1/130 V)*(1 mole e/96,500 C)*(6.022×10²³ electrons/mole electron)
= 2.88×10¹⁸ electrons
