Answer: (E) = 1.54ev

Explanation:

Maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons = <em>hf</em> - Ф

where <em>h</em> is Planck's constant = 6.63*10⁻³⁴ ,f is frequency = c/λ, c = velocity of light = 3.0*10⁸m/s, λ is wavelength of light = 310nm 310*10⁻⁹m, Ф = work function of metal = 2.46eV

max K.E. = hc/λ - Ф

max K.E. = (6.63*10⁻³⁴ * 3.0*10⁸m/s / 310nm 310*10⁻⁹m)  - 2.46eV

max K.E. = 6.416*10⁻¹⁹J - 2.46eV

<em>Note; 1ev = 1.6*10⁻¹⁹J</em>

max K.E. = {(6.416129*10⁻¹⁹J/ 1.6*10⁻¹⁹J) * 1eV} -2.46eV

max K.E. = 4.00eV -2.46eV

max K.E. = 1.54ev

If a typical smelt weighs 225 g, what is the total mass of pcbs in a smelt in the great lakes? If a typical smelt weighs 225 g,
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer;

= 2.34 x 10^-4 g pcbs

Explanation;

-A typical smelt has 1.04 ppm of PCB is great lakes.

Therefore;

The amount of PCB in a smelt in great leak can be calculated by multiplying the mass of smelt by the pcbs present in a smelt

= 225 g * ( 1.04/100000)

= 2.34 x10^-4 g pcbs

A box of mass m slides down an inclined plane that makes an angle of φ with the horizontal. if the coefficient of kinetic fricti
Schach [20]
In a force diagram set-up, we name the angle of inclination theta, g as the acceleration due to gravity. In this case, the forces acting on the box going down is the weight itself impeded by the friction between the box and the inclined plane.

The weight of the box is expressed as mg sin theta
The frictional force is expressed as the normal force times the coefficient of friction that is expressed as mu g cos theta.

By Newton's second law of motion,  F = ma = mg sin theta - mu g cos theta
Thus, a = g (sin theta - u cos theta

What are the types of realistic fiction?.
Daniel [21]

The types of realistic fiction:<u> are </u><u>historical </u><u>and </u><u>contemporary </u><u>fiction.</u>

Practical fiction creates imaginary characters and conditions that depict our world and society. It focuses on themes of growing up and confronting non-public and social problems. This genre portrays characters coming to apprehend themselves and others.

Realistic Fiction is divided into two elements: ancient and modern-day fiction. ancient fiction takes place in a time far-flung enough to be taken into consideration records, as opposed to contemporary fiction which takes vicinity these days or within the recent beyond. sensible fiction is a style of testimonies in which the events are made up, but they may easily occur in actual existence. those styles of stories take place in acquainted, ordinary settings and have normal characters.

How fast can the 140 a current through a 0.200 h inductor be shut off if the induced emf cannot exceed 80.0 v?
Vesna [10]
Recall that to compute for the emf of a circuit given current and inductance, we must recall that 

emf = - M \frac{\Delta I }{\Delta t}

where I is the current (A), M is the mutual inductance (h), and t is the time (ms). Since the current must not exceed 80.0 V, we have

80.0 \geq 0.200(\frac{140}{t})
t \geq \frac{28.0}{80}
t \geq 0.35

From this, we see that it must take at least 0.35 ms so it doesn't exceed 80 V.
Answer: 0.35 ms
