RideAnS [48]3 years ago

Answer:

Option (a)

Explanation:

We will discard options that don't fit the situation:

Option b: <em>Incorrect </em>since if the driver "hits the gas" then velocity is augmenting and it's not constant.

Option c and d: <em>Incorrect </em>since the situation doesn't give us any information that could be related directly to the terrain or movement direction.

Option a: Correct. At <em>stage 1</em> we can assume the driver was going at constant speed which means acceleration is constantly zero. At <em>stage 2 </em>we can assume the driver augmented speed linearly, this is, with constant positive acceleration. At <em>stage 3 </em>we can assume the driver slowed the speed linearly, with constant negative acceleration.

Monochromatic light falls on a metal surface that has a work function of 6.7 x 10-19 J. Each photon has an energy of 8.0 x 10-19
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Correct answer: (a) Ekmax =  1.3 · 10⁻¹⁹ J, (b) ε = 5 eV, (c) f = 1.21 · 10¹⁵ Hz

Explanation:

Given:

photon energy  ε = 8 · 10⁻¹⁹ J

work function for metal  Wf = 6.7 · 10⁻¹⁹ J

(a) Ekmax = ?

The Einstein equation for photo effect is:

ε = Wf + Ekmax  ⇒ Ekmax = ε - Wf

Ekmax = 8 · 10⁻¹⁹ - 6.7 · 10⁻¹⁹ = 1.3 · 10⁻¹⁹ J

Ekmax =  1.3 · 10⁻¹⁹ J

(b)  ε = ? eV

the relationship between 1 eV and 1 J is:

1 eV = 1.6 · 10⁻¹⁹ J

so the energy of one photon in eV equals:

ε = 8 · 10⁻¹⁹ J = 8 · 10⁻¹⁹ / 1.6 · 10⁻¹⁹ eV = 5 eV

ε = 5 eV

(c)  f = ?

the energy of a single photon is calculated according to the formula:

ε = h · f  

where is:

h = 6.62 ·  10⁻³⁴ J s    plank constant

and f  frequency of each photon (electromagnetic radiation)

f = ε / h = 8 · 10⁻¹⁹ J / 6.62 ·  10⁻³⁴ J s = 1.21 · 10¹⁵ s⁻¹ =  1.21 · 10¹⁵ Hz

f = 1.21 · 10¹⁵ Hz

God is with you!!!

A student measures the length of the shadow of the Washington Monument to be 620 ft. If the Washington Monument is 555 ft tall,
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The angle of elevation of the Sun = 41.8°

Explanation:

Let the angle of elevation of the sun be θ

Using trigonometric relations,

Tan θ = opp/adj

opp = the height of the Washington Tower = 555 ft

adj = the length of the shadow = 620 ft

Tan θ = (555/620) = 0.8952

θ = Tan⁻¹ (0.8952) = 41.8°

Hence, the angle of elevation of the Sun = 41.8°
