The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the work done on the particle:
\Delta K = W
The work done on the particle is the integral of the force on dx:
W= \int\limits^{3L}_L {F(x)} \, dx = \int\limits^{3L}_L {cx^2} \, dx = \frac{26}{3}cL^3
So, this corresponds to the change in kinetic energy of the particle.

OK. Here we go.
Watch closely:


Divide each side        
by  'mass' :                  <span>Momentum / mass  =  Speed </span>

Light striking a metal surface causes electrons to be emitted from the metal via the photoelectric effect.In a particular experi
ANEK [815]

The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases if the intensity of the incident light is increased.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

As a result of photoelectric effect, electrons are emitted by the light incident on a metal surface. The emitted electrons count and its kinetic energy can measure as the function of light intensity and frequency. Like physicists, at the 20th century beginning, it should be expected that the light wave's energy (its intensity) will be transformed into the kinetic energy of emitted electrons.

In addition, the electrons count emitting from metal must vary with light wave frequency. This frequency relationship was expected because the electric field oscillates due to the light wave and the metal electrons react to different frequencies. In other words, the number of electrons emitted was expected to be frequency dependent and their kinetic energy should be dependent on the intensity (constant wavelength) of light.

Thus, the maximum in kinetic energy of electrons emitted increases with increase in light's frequency and is experimentally independent of light intensity. So, the number of emitted electrons is proportionate to the intensity of the incident light.

Light waves reflect off the objects that you see. Where do those light waves originate?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The Sun is a natural source for visible light waves and our eyes see the reflection of this sunlight off the objects around us.

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

1.635×10^-3m

Explanation:

Young modulus is the ratio of the tensile stress of a material to its tensile strain.

Young modulus = Tensile stress/tensile strain

Tensile stress = Force/Area

Given force = 130N

Area = Πr² = Π×(1.55×10^-3)²

Area = 4.87×10^-6m²

Tensile stress = 130/4.87×10^-6 = 8.39×10^7N/m²

Tensile strain = extension/original length

Tensile strain = e/3.9

Substituting in the young modulus formula given young modulus to be 2×10¹¹N/m²

2×10¹¹N/m² = 8.39×10^7/{e/3.9)}

2×10¹¹ = (8.39×10^7×3.9)/e

2×10¹¹e = 3.27×10^8

e = 3.27×10^8/2×10¹¹

e = 1.635×10^-3m

The stretch of the steel wire will be

1.635×10^-3m

Explain the forces that keep a rock balanced on a tiny pedestal. Please help me with this!
SashulF [63]
Normal force for the rock because that makes an object stable at its position.
static friction because micro-welts hold its particle on its position so it doesn't change in position by a potential energy. Gravity makes it stay on the ground because its force attraction between an object and the earth. 
Hope this helps <span />
