Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the wave model of light, physicists predicted that increasing light amplitude would increase the kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons, while increasing the frequency would increase measured current.

Contrary to the predictions, experiments showed that increasing the light frequency increased the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, and increasing the light amplitude increased the current.

Based on these findings, Einstein proposed that light behaved like a stream of particles called photons with an energy of \text{E}=h\nuE=hνstart text, E, end text, equals, h, \nu.

The work function, \PhiΦ\Phi, is the minimum amount of energy required to induce photoemission of electrons from a metal surface, and the value of \PhiΦ\Phi depends on the metal.

The energy of the incident photon must be equal to the sum of the metal's work function and the photoelectron kinetic energy:

vovangra [49]

c. The Moon is positioned directly between the earth and the sun is the statement that does not result in an eclipse.

Explanation:

  • The Sun is completely blocked in a solar eclipse because the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun.
  • it is just the right distance away from Earth, the Moon can fully blocks the Sun's light from Earth's perspective

If you walk 30 meters forwards, and then turn around and walk 25 meters backwards, what is the distance that you walked? What di
xeze [42]

Given :

Walk in forward direction is 30 m .

Walk in backward direction is 25 m .

To Find :

The distance and displacement .

Solution :

We know , distance is total distance covered and displacement is distance between final and initial position .

So , distance travelled is :

D = 30 + 25 m = 55 m .

Now , we first move 30 m in forward direction and then 25 m in backward direction .

So , displacement is :

D = 30 - 25 m = 5 m .

Therefore , distance and displacement covered is 55 m and 5 m respectively .

Hence , this is the required solution .

A boy throws a ball and accidentally breaks a window. The momentum of the ball and all the pieces of glass taken together after the collision is the same as <span>the momentum of the ball before the collision. I think you forgot to give the choices along with the question. I hope that the answer has come to your great help.</span>
