In a particular experiment to study the photoelectric effect, the frequency of the incident light and the temperature of the met

al are held constant. Assuming that the light incident on the metal surface causes electrons to be ejected from the metal, what happens if the intensity of the incident light is increased?
Check all that apply.

A. The work function of the metal decreases.
B. The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases.
C. The maximum speed of the emitted electrons increases.
D. The stopping potential increases.

Answer:

B. The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases.

Explanation:

Light consists of photons . Energy of each photon depends upon frequency of light . The increase in intensity increases the number of photons . It does not increase energy of photons .

So if a high intensity light falls on a photosensitive plate , each photon ejects one electron . So number of electrons increases if we increase intensity of photon. It does not increase kinetic energy of ejected electrons . Work function depends upon the nature of plate.

<span>First, water evaporates from the ocean to the atmosphere, then... put each step in the correct order.
</span>Second- atmospheric circulation advects the water.
Third- water condensates to form clouds.
Fourth- precipitation falls from clouds to the land.
Fifth- some water stored as snow or ice.
Sixth- water either ±ows along the surface in rivers and lakes or infiltrates the ground.
Seventh- water returns to the ocean.

Help<br><br><br> What are energy and work
mylen [45]

Answer:

<em>In physics, energy is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work on, or to heat, the object. Energy is a conserved quantity; the law of conservation of energy states that energy can be converted in form, but not created or destroyed.</em>

Write a hypothesis about how the height of the cylinder affects the temperature of the water. Use the "if . . . then . . . becau
AnnyKZ [126]
The statement that can be used to answer this  question is:

"If the cylinder is brought higher then, its temperature when brought down becomes higher because a greater amount of potential energy is converted to thermal energy."

The potential energy is converted to thermal energy when the object is released the velocity becomes higher because of the acceleration due to gravity.
