In a photoelectric experiment using a sodium surface, you find a stopping potential of 1.61 V for a wavelength of 320 nm and a s

topping potential of 0.740 V for a wavelength of 412 nm. From these data find (a) a value for the Planck constant, (b) the work function Φ for sodium, and (c) the cutoff wavelength λ0 for sodium.

Answer:

a) 4.15×10∧-15 eV/s

b) 1.31 eV

c) 950.4 nm

Explanation:

let Ф be the work function.

a) f = c/λ = (3×10^8)/(320×10^-9) = 9.375×10^14 /s

  f = c/λ = (3×10^8)/(412×10^-9) = 7.28×10^14 /s

E = hf +Ф

Energy which relates to the poteial is calculated in eV (electonvolts).

so E = eV

Now using the straight line analogy in the equation above h is the gradient of the line.

Note that energy which relates to the poteial is calculated in eV (electonvolts).

so E = eV

and h = eV/f

h=[(0.74 - 1.61)eV]/[((7.28 - 9.375)×10^14 )/s]

 = 4.15×10^-15 eV/s ≈ 6.65×10^-34 J/s

b)  E = hf +Ф

  eV = hc/λ - Ф

Ф = hc/λ -  eV

   = (4.15×10^-15 eV/s)(3×10^8)/[(320×10^-9) -  (1.60×10^-19)(1.61)eV]

   = 1.31 eV ≈ 2.1×10^-19 J/s

c) Ф = hc/λ0

  λ0 = hc/Ф

       = [(6.65×10^-34 J/s)(3×10^8 )]/ (2.1×10^-19 J/s)

       = 9.50×10^-7 m

The len() function counts the total number of key/value pairs stored in a dictionary and returns this value as an integer.
denis-greek [22]

The statement is True. The len() function counts the total number of key/value pairs stored in a dictionary and returns this value as an integer.

The entire numbers are set of actual numbers that consist of 0 and all effective counting numbers. while, excludes fractions, terrible integers, fractions, and decimals. all the whole numbers are also integers because integers encompass all the positive and negative numbers.

The integers are the set of complete numbers and their opposites. Fractions and decimals are not included in the set of integers. for instance, 2,5, 0,−12,244,−15, and 8 are all integers. The numbers include eight. five,23, and 413 are not integers.

A variety that isn't a whole variety, a negative whole number, or zero is defined as Non-Integer. it's miles any quantity that isn't always protected in the integer set, that is expressed as { … -4, -three, -2, -1, zero, 1, 2, three, four… }. some of the examples of non-integers consist of decimals, fractions, and imaginary numbers.

List the submultiples and multiple units of length, mass, and time with respect to real-life situations. How are these units are
dangina [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

In physics, there are two types of physical quantities namely the fundamental and the derived quantities. Fundamental quantities are independent quantities on which derived quantities depends on. Length, mass and time are examples of fundamental quantities.

The SI unit of length is meters. A meter is a multiple unit. Its submultiple units are centimetres (10⁻²metres), kilometres (10³metres), decimetres (10⁻¹metres) etc

The SI unit of mass is kilogram (kg). The only sub multiple unit used in real-life situation is grams.

1 kg = 100 grams

The SI unit of time is seconds. The multiple units are the minutes, hours, weeks, days and years.

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 day = 24 * 3600 = 86,400 secs
