Particle Model

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect carefully explains the particle model of light. In the particle model, all matter is believed to be made up of tiny particles. These tiny particles constitute every matter.

  • The particles of light are known as photons.
  • When the photons of light hit the surface of metals, they can eject electrons when their energy is greater than the binding energy of the electrons in the metal.
  • Electrons are ejected due to the collision of the particles of light, called photons with the metal surface.

Answer: 10 s, 30 m/s , 150 m

Explanation:

Given

The speed of motorcyclist is  u_1=15\ m/s

The initial speed of a police motorcycle is u_2=0\ m/s

acceleration of police motorcycle is a=3\ m/s^2

Police will catch the motorcyclist when they traveled equal distances

distance traveled by motorcyclist in time t is

\Rightarrow s_1=15\times t

Distance traveled by Police in time t is

\Rightarrow s_2=u_2t+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s_2=0+0.5\times 3\times t^2

put s_1=s_2

\Rightarrow 15t=0.5\times 3\times t^2\\\\\Rightarrow t(1.5t-15)=0\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{15}{1.5}=10\ s

Police officer's speed at that time is

\Rightarrow v_2=u_2+at\\\Rightarrow v_2=0+3\times 10=30\ m/s

Distance traveled by each vehicle is

\Rightarrow s_1=s_2=15\times t=15\times 10=150\ m

What do you mean by physical quantity
Naddika [18.5K]

A physical quantity is something which can be measured and whose measurement is necessary because all the laws of physics are given in terms of these physical quantities. The examples of physical quantity are mass, length, time, temperature, electric current, velocity , acceleration, force, work, weight,power, energy etc.

There are some quantities which cannot be measured and hence are not classified as physical quantities , for example, love, honesty, hatred etc

Thus a physical quantity is a quantity which can be measured.

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a gravitational force of 12 units. If the mass of Object 2 is tripled, then the new grav
olasank [31]

Explanation:

Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D².

G is the gravitational constant, which has the same value throughout our universe.

D is the distance between the objects.

so, if you triple one of the masses, what does that do to our equation ?

Fgravitynew = G*(3*mass1*mass2)/D²

due to the commutative property of multiplication

Fgravitynew = 3* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 3* Fgravity

so, the right answer is 3×12 = 36 units.

Which statement best describes perigee?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

A. The closest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth

Explanation:

The perigee is defined as the closest point in the orbit of an object (such as a satellite) from the centre of the Earth. In this case, the Earth's satellite is the Moon, so the perigee is defined as the closest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth. so option A is the correct one.

Let's see instead the names of the other options:

B. The farthest point in the Moon's orbit to Earth  --> this point is called apogee

C. The closest point in Earth's orbit of the Sun  --> this point is called perihelion

D. The Sun's orbit that is closest to the Moon --> this point has no specific name
