Consider two metallic rods mounted on insulated supports. One is neutral, another positively charged. The charged rod is brought

close to the neutral one (no touching!) and at this time the neutral rod was briefly grounded (for instance, touched by your hand).
Part (a) What would be resulting charge (if any) on initially neutral rod?

1) There is not enough information given to be able to answer.
2) It will be positively charged.
3) It will be negatively charged.
4) It will remains neutral.

Answer:

The resulting charge on the initially neutral rod will be  3.) it will be negatively charged.

Explanation:

If the neutral rod is brought close to the neutral one and if the neutral rod is touching the ground then the positive charges will attract electrons from the ground on to the rod.

The Earth (or ground) has electrons in abundance and electrons can be taken from of fed into the Earth without having any significant impact on the Earth's electric field.

So. the resulting charge on the initially neutral rod will be  3.) it will be negatively charged.

The following table lists the work functions of a few commonmetals, measured in electron volts.
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Lithium

Explanation:

The equation for the photoelectric effect is

\frac{hc}{\lambda}= \phi + K_{max}

where

\frac{hc}{\lambda} is the energy of the incident photon, with

h being the Planck constant

c is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength of the photon

\phi is the work function of the metal (the minimum energy needed to extract the photoelectron from the metal)

K_{max} is the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons

In this problem, we have

\lambda= 190 nm = 1.9\cdot 10^{-7}m is the wavelength of the incident photon

K_{max}=4.0 eV is the maximum kinetic energy of the electrons

First of all we can find the energy of the incident photon

E=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{1.90\cdot 10^{-7} m}=1.05\cdot 10^{-18} J

Converting into electronvolts,

E=\frac{1.05\cdot 10^{-18} J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=6.6 eV

So now we can re-arrange the equation of the photoelectric effect to find the work function of the metal

\phi = E-K_{max}=6.6 eV - 4.0 eV=2.6 eV

So the metal is most likely Lithium, which has a work function of 2.5 eV.

A 0.473 kg ice puck, moving east with a speed of 2.76 m/s, has a head-on collision with a 0.819 kg puck initially at rest. Assum
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The final speed of puck 1 is 0.739 m/s towards west  and puck 2 is 2.02 m/s towards east .

Explanation:

Let us consider east as positive direction and west as negative direction .

Given

mass of puck 1 , m_1= 0.473 kg

mass of puck 2 , m_2= 0.819 kg

initial speed of puck 1 , u_1=2.76\frac{m}{s}

initial speed of puck 2 , u_2=0.00\frac{m}{s}

Final speed of puck 1 and puck 2 be v_1\, and\, v_2  respectively

Apply conservation of linear momentum

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

=>0.473\times 2.76+0.0=0.473\times v_1+0.819\times v_2

=>1.594=0.5775\times v_1+ v_2 -----(A)

Since collision is perfectly elastic , coefficient restitution e=1

u_2-u_1=v_1-v_2

=>0-2.76=v_1-v_2 ------(B)

From equation (A) and (B)

v_1=-0.739\frac{m}{s}

and v_2=2.02\frac{m}{s}

Thus the final speed of puck 1 is 0.739 m/s towards west  and puck 2 is 2.02 m/s towards east .

Which of Newton's laws of motion describes the motion of an object that has a net<br> force of ON?
algol [13]

Newton's first and second laws of motion both do, but I think the one you're looking for is: <em>The First Law of Motion</em>.  That description is a little more direct.

It says that if an object is not acted on by a net external force, then it continues in "constant, uniform motion".
