Answer:
2.083 V.
Explanation:
Stopping potential is the potential that is required to stop the current to zero . This potential is applied externally to oppose the potential created by the photoelectric effect . It gives the measure the photoelectric potential being generated .
Here current drops to 25 μA to 19 μA by a potential of 500mV
Change in current
= 25 - 19 = 6 μA
Voltage requirement for unit reduction in current
= 500 / 6 μA
To reduce current 0f 25 μA
requirement of V = (500 / 6 ) x 25 = 2083.33 mV = 2.083 V.
Answer:
The mass of the object is 5.045 lbm.
Explanation:
Given;
kinetic energy of the object, K.E = 1558.71 ft.lbf
velocity of the object, V = 141 ft/s
The kinetic energy of the object is calculated as;


Therefore, the mass of the object is 5.045 lbm.
Sure. The acceleration may be decreasing, but as long as it stays
in the same direction as the velocity, the velocity increases.
I think you meant to ask whether the body can have increasing velocity
with negative acceleration. That answer isn't simple either.
If the body's velocity is in the positive direction, then positive acceleration
means speeding up, and negative acceleration means slowing down.
BUT ... If the body's velocity is in the negative direction, then positive
acceleration means slowing down, and negative acceleration means
speeding up.
I know that's confusing.
-- Take a piece of scratch paper, write a 'plus' sign at one edge and
a 'minus' sign at the other edge. Those are the definitions of which
direction is positive and which direction is negative.
-- Then sketch some cars ... one traveling in the positive direction, and
one driving in the negative direction. Those are the directions of the
velocities.
-- Now, one car at a time:
. . . . . first push on the back of the car, in the direction it's moving;.
. . . . . then push on the front of the car, against its motion.
Each push causes the car to accelerate in the direction of the push.
When you see it on paper, all the positive and negative velocities
and accelerations will come clear for you.
