Answer:

2.13 x 10^-19 J or 0.53 eV

Explanation:

cut off wavelength, λo = 700 nm = 700 x 10^-9 m

λ = 400 nm = 400 x 10^-9 m

Use the energy equation

E = \frac{h c}{\lambda _{o}}+K

Where, K be the work function

\frac{h c}{\lambda} = \frac{h c}{\lambda _{o}}+K

K =hc\left ( \frac{1}{\lambda } -\frac{1}{\lambda _{0}}\right )

K =6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}\left ( \frac{1}{4\times 10^{-7} } -\frac{1}{7\times 10^{-7}}\right )

K = 2.13 x 10^-19 J

K = 0.53 eV

Traveling waves propagate with a fixed speed usually denoted as v (but sometimes c). The waves are called __________ if their wa
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Periodic.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

Generally, the most commonly used electromagnetic wave technology in telecommunications is radio waves.

Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m. Therefore, radio waves are a series of repetitive valleys and peaks that are typically characterized of having the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Basically, as a result of radio waves having long wavelengths, they are mainly used in long-distance communications such as the carriage and transmission of data.

Generally, a fixed speed is used for the propagation of traveling waves and this speed is usually denoted with the variable "v" or sometimes "c."

Furthermore, if the waveform of a traveling wave is repeated every time at specific intervals T, it is referred to as periodic wave.

Mathematically, the period of a traveling wave is given by the formula;

Period = \frac {1}{T}

Where;

T is the time measured in seconds.

Jack tries to place magnets on his refrigerator at home, but they won’t stick. What could be the reason?
saul85 [17]
The most probable reason why the magnets won't stick on the refrigerator is that the body of the refrigerator and the magnets have like poles. If both have negative or both have positive poles facing each other, they will repel. In principle, magnets are attracted to opposite poles and like poles repel.
