Red light of wavelength 651 nm produces photoelectrons from a certain photoemissive material. Green light of wavelength 521 nm p
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

material work function is 0.956 eV

Explanation:

given data

red wavelength 651 nm

green wavelength 521 nm

photo electrons = 1.50 × maximum kinetic energy

to find out

material work function

solution

we know by Einstein photo electric equation  that is

for red light

h ( c / λr ) = Ф +  kinetic energy

for green light

h ( c / λg ) = Ф +  1.50 × kinetic energy

now from both equation put kinetic energy from red to green

h ( c / λg ) = Ф +  1.50 × (h ( c / λr ) - Ф)

Ф =( hc / 0.50) × ( 1.50/ λr  - 1/ λg)

put all value

Ф =( 6.63 ×10^{-34} (3 ×10^{8} )  / 0.50) × ( 1.50/ λr  - 1/ λg)

Ф =( 6.63 ×10^{-34} (3 ×10^{8} ) / 0.50 ) × ( 1.50/ 651×10^{-9}   - 1/ 521 ×10^{-9})

Ф = 1.5305  ×10^{-19} J  × ( 1ev / 1.6 ×10^{-19} J )

Ф = 0.956 eV

material work function is 0.956 eV

If youre walking from point a to b, the magnitude of your displacement will always be equal or less than or greater than your di
xenn [34]

The magnitude of your displacement can be equal to the distance you covered, or it can be less than the distance you covered.  But it can never be greater than the distance you covered.

This is because displacement is a straight line, whereas distance can be a straight line, a squiggly line, a zig-zag line, a line with loops in it, a line with a bunch of back-and-forths in it, or any other kind of line.

The straight line is always the shortest path between two points.

If a builder of mass 75kg climbs a vertical ladder of 25m how much energy has she gained ?
erica [24]
So,

GPE (graviational potential energy) = mass x g x height

GPE is depends on where zero height is defined.  In this situation, we define h = 0 as the initial height.

GPE = 75 \ kg*9.8 \ \frac{m}{s^2}*25 \ m

GPE = 18,375 \frac{kg*m^2}{s^2}

GPE = 18,375 \ joules(J) \ or \ 18.375 \ kilojoules(kJ)

The builder has gained 18.375 kJ of PE.

In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

\lambda_2 = 573.3 nm

Explanation:

As we know that the position of maximum intensity on the screen is given as

y = \frac{N\lambda L}{d}

here we know that

\lambda = wavelength

L = distance of the screen

d = distance between two slits

now we know that the position of 8th maximum intensity is same as that of 9th maximum on the screen

so we have

\frac{N_1\lambda_1 L}{d} = \frac{N_2 \lambda_2 L}{d}

so here we have

8 (645 nm) = 9 \lambda_2

\lambda_2 = 573.3 nm
