Cindy saw her mother heating a wet pan on the stove. As the pan got hotter, the water on the outside began to dry. Why?

Physics

dlinn [17]3 years ago

Answer:

As the temperature of materials increase, the objects find a phenomenon called change of phase.

This means that if you give enough heat to a liquid, this can change of state from liquid state to gas state (the water evaporates)

So the water in the pan reaches the evaporation temperature (around 100°C) and it starts to evaporate, this is why the water on the outside begins to "dry"

What is the energy of a photon that has the same wavelength as an electron having a kinetic energy of 15 ev?
serg [7]

Answer: 6.268(10)^{-16}J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an electron K_{e} is given by the following equation:

K_{e}=\frac{(p_{e})^{2} }{2m_{e}}   (1)

Where:

K_{e}=15eV=2.403^{-18}J=2.403^{-18}\frac{kgm^{2}}{s^{2}}

p_{e} is the momentum of the electron

m_{e}=9.11(10)^{-31}kg  is the mass of the electron

From (1) we can find p_{e}:

p_{e}=\sqrt{2K_{e}m_{e}}    (2)

p_{e}=\sqrt{2(2.403^{-18}J)(9.11(10)^{-31}kg)}  

p_{e}=2.091(10)^{-24}\frac{kgm}{s}   (3)

Now, in order to find the wavelength of the electron \lambda_{e}   with this given kinetic energy (hence momentum), we will use the De Broglie wavelength equation:

\lambda_{e}=\frac{h}{p_{e}}    (4)

Where:

h=6.626(10)^{-34}J.s=6.626(10)^{-34}\frac{m^{2}kg}{s} is the Planck constant

So, we will use the value of p_{e} found in (3) for equation (4):

\lambda_{e}=\frac{6.626(10)^{-34}J.s}{2.091(10)^{-24}\frac{kgm}{s}}    

\lambda_{e}=3.168(10)^{-10}m    (5)

We are told the wavelength of the photon  \lambda_{p} is the same as the wavelength of the electron:

\lambda_{e}=\lambda_{p}=3.168(10)^{-10}m    (6)

Therefore we will use this wavelength to find the energy of the photon E_{p} using the following equation:

E_{p}=\frac{hc}{lambda_{p}}    (7)

Where c=3(10)^{8}m/s  is the spped of light in vacuum

E_{p}=\frac{(6.626(10)^{-34}J.s)(3(10)^{8}m/s)}{3.168(10)^{-10}m}  

Finally:

E_{p}=6.268(10)^{-16}J

What best describes desert pavements
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A common theory suggests that desert pavements are formed through gradual removal of sand and other fine particles by the wind and intermittent rains leaving behind the large fragments. The larger rock particles are shaken into place by actions of different agents such as rain, wind, gravity, and animals
