When the police car is moving towards you, the sound waves are more compressed together, leading to a higher pitch sound. This is according to the Doppler Effect, in which sound waves ahead of the object is more compressed, leading to a higher pitch, and more spread out behind, leading to a lower pitch.

When light is directed on a metal surface, the kinetic energies of the photoelectrons a) are random b) vary with the frequency o
jekas [21]

Answer:

b) vary with the frequency of the light

Explanation:

The phone electric effect can be expressed as

K.E=(hv -W•)

Where K.E is the Kinectic energy

W• = work function of the metal

ν =frequency of the radiation

h = Planck's constat

Then, we can see that K.E is proportional linearly to "v" in the equation above.

Therefore, When light is directed on a metal surface, the kinetic energies of the photoelectrons vary with the frequency of the light
