4 0

Answer:

70 km

Explanation:

Before answering, let's remind the difference between distance and displacement:

- Distance: the total length of the path covered, no matter in which direction

- Displacement: the distance in a straigth line between the final point and the starting point of the motion

In this problem, we are asked to find the total distance travelled. So, we can simply add the length of the two parts of the path, regardless of their direction:

d = 30 km + 40 km = 70 km

Describe how the number of photoelectrons emitted from a metal plate in the photoelectric effect would change if the following o
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

a) True. The number of photoelectrons is proportional to the amount (intensity) of the incident beam. From the expression above we see that threshold frequency cannot emit electrons.

b)   λ = c / f

Therefore, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and therefore the energy of the photoelectrons emitted,

c)  threshold energy

        h f =Ф

Explanation:

It's photoelectric effect was fully explained by Einstein by the expression

       Knox = h f - fi

Where K is the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, f the frequency of the incident radiation and fi the work function of the metal

a) True. The number of photoelectrons is proportional to the amount (intensity) of the incident beam. From the expression above we see that threshold frequency cannot emit electrons.

b) wavelength is related to frequency

         λ = c / f

Therefore, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and therefore the energy of the photoelectrons emitted, so there is a wavelength from which electrons cannot be removed from the metal.

c) As the work increases, more frequency radiation is needed to remove the electrons, because there is a threshold energy

        h f =Ф

A car’s bumper is designed to withstand a 4.0-km/h (1.1-m/s) collision with an immovable object without damage to the body of th
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

 avriage force F = 2722.5 N

Explanation:

For this problem we can use Newton's second law, to calculate the average force and acceleration we can find it by kinematics.

      vf² = v₀² - 2 ax

The final carriage speed is zero (vf = 0)

      0 = v₀² - 2ax

      a = v₀² / 2x

      a = 1.1²/(2 0.200)

      a = 3.025 m / s²

      a = 3.0 m/s²

We calculate the average force

      F = ma

      F = 900 3,025

      F = 2722.5 N

Humans obtain energy in a number of different ways. About half of the electrical energy in the U.S. is generated by burning coal
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

C. Burning coal tends to harm the environment more than using solar panels.

Explanation:

When coal is burned, it reacts with the oxygen in the air. This reaction converts the stored potential energy, which turns into thermal energy, which is released as heat. But it also produces methane and carbon dioxide which is released into the air.
