Answer:

a) 1.59(10)^{-19} J

b) 2.34(10)^{12} electrons

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect consists of the emission of electrons (electric current) that occurs when light falls on a metal surface under certain conditions.  

If the light is a stream of photons and each of them has energy, this energy is able to pull an electron out of the crystalline lattice of the metal and communicate, in addition, a kinetic energy.  

<u>This is what Einstein proposed: </u>

Light behaves like a stream of particles called photons with an energy  E:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda} (1)  

So, the energy E of the incident photon must be equal to the sum of the Work function \Phi of the metal and the kinetic energy K of the photoelectron:  

E=\Phi+K (2)  

Where \Phi=6.94(10)^{-19} J is the minimum amount of energy required to induce the photoemission of electrons from the surface of Titanium metal.

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h3 /><h3>a)  Maximum possible kinetic energy of the emitted electrons (K)</h3>

From (1) we can know the energy of one photon of 233 nm light:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

Where:

h=6.63(10)^{-34}J.s is the Planck constant  

\lambda=233 (10)^{-9} m is the wavelength

c=3 (10)^{8} m/s is the speed of light

E=\frac{(6.63(10)^{-34}J.s)(3 (10)^{8} m/s)}{3 (10)^{8} m/s} (3)

E=8.53(10)^{-19} J (4) This is the energy of one 233 nm photon

Substituting (4) in (2):

8.53(10)^{-19} J=6.94(10)^{-19} J+K (5)  

Finding K:

K=1.59(10)^{-19} J (5)  This is the maximum possible kinetic energy of the emitted electrons

<h3>b) Maximum number of electrons that can be freed by a burst of light whose total energy is 2 \mu J=2(10)^{-6} J</h3>

Since one photon of 233 nm is able to free at most one electron from the Titanium metal, we can calculate the following relation:

\frac{E_{burst}}{E}

Where E_{burst}=2(10)^{-6} J is the energy of the burst of light

Hence:

\frac{E_{burst}}{E}=\frac{2(10)^{-6} J}{8.53(10)^{-19} J}=2.34(10)^{12} electrons This is the maximum number of electrons that can be freed by the burst of light.

What is the horse power of an electric motor which can do by 1250 joule of work in 5 seconds​
Ksju [112]
1250 J in 5 sec= 250 Joule(s) per second (1250/5 0

250 Joules per second = 250 Watts ( 1J/s = 1 Watt per definition)

250 Watts output = 250/0.65 efficiency = 384 Watts input

1 Horsepower = 732 Watts

Motors 1 Horsepower and under are made in certain step sizes like

3/4 , 1/2 , 1/3, 1/4, 1/16 1/20 of a Horsepower.

3/4 Horsepower is 549 Watts

1/2 Horsepower is 366 Watts

so you need to 3/4 horsepower motor to achieve 1250 J of work in 5 seconds.

anastassius [24]

The official web site of the Nobel Prize explains that Marie Curie’s chemistry prize was partly for her discovery that the radioactivity of a substance is unaffected when it undergoes a chemical reaction. The discovery implied was that, Radioactivity involves Radioactivity involves only neutrons.

Explanation:

  • The official web site of the Nobel Prize explains that Marie Curie’s chemistry prize was partly for her discovery that the radioactivity of a substance is unaffected when it undergoes a chemical reaction. The discovery implied was that, Radioactivity involves only neutrons.
  • Marie Curie studied about the radiation of all compounds containing the known radioactive elements, including uranium and thorium, which she later discovered that they were radioactive.
  • she discovered the following results,
  • the exact measurement of the strength of the radiation from uranium;
  • the intensity of the radiation was found to be proportional to the amount of uranium or thorium in the compound .
  • the ability to emit radiation is not dependent on the arrangement of the atoms in a molecule;
  • it must be linked to the interior of the atom itself which is a revolutionary discovery.
