Answer:

a) 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV

Explanation:

given,

energy at ground level = -13.6 e V

energy at first exited state = - 3.4 e V

A photon of energy ionized from ground state and electron of energy K is released.

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

K combine with photon in first exited state giving out photon of energy

h\nu_2 =\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}=\dfrac{12400}{466}

            = 26.6 e V

h c = 6.626 ×  10⁻³⁴ ×  3  × 10⁸  = 12400 e V A°

K + ( 3.4 ) = 26.6 e V

a) energy of free electron

K = 26.6 - 3.4 = 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

h ν₁  = 23.2 + 13.6

       = 36.8 e V

energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV

Boxes A and B are being pulled to the right on a frictionless surface. Box A has a larger mass than B. How do the two tension fo
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Tension T1 is less than tension T2.

T1 < T2

Explanation:

According to given data,

mass of box A ( mA) is grater than mass of box B (mB)

we can write,

m(A) > m(B)

Newton's second law states that:

Tension of object is directly proportional to the mass of the system.

T ∝ m

here Boxes A and B are being pulled to the right on a frictionless surface,

so Tension T1 generates due to the mass of box A m(A)

and Tension T2 arises due to mass of the system m(A) + m(B)

Thus tension T1 will be less than tension T2

T1 < T2

g Calculate the maximum wavelength of light that will cause the photoelectric effect for potassium. Potassium has work function
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

λ = 5.4196 10⁻⁷m,  λ = 541.96 nm    this is green ligh

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was explained by Eintein assuming that the light was made up of particles called photons and these collided with the electrons taking them out of the material.

 

                     K = h f -Ф

where K is the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons, hf is the energy of the light quanta and fi is the work function of the material.

The speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

                   c = λ / f

                  f = c /λ

we substitute

                K = h c / λ - Φ

for the case that they ask us the kinetic energy of the electons is zero (K = 0)

                 h c / λ = Ф

                λ = h c / Ф

we calculate

                 λ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴  3 10⁸ / 3.67 10⁻¹⁸

                 λ = 5.4196 10⁻⁷m

let's take nm

                lam = 541.96 nm

this is green light

Write a complete sentence using the scientific meaning of energy
Nitella [24]

Sentence:

"A collision with no energy is transferred."

Or you could put

"Gamma rays often occur at different energies"

...

Scientific energy is the power that an object or force has that can be measured in joules.
