In the photoelectric effect, the greater the frequency of the illuminating light, the greater the:_______

Physics
1 answer:
TEA [102]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. Maximum velocity of ejected electrons.

Explanation:

The ejection of electrons form a metal surface when the metal surface is exposed to a monochromatic electromagnetic wave of sufficiently short wavelength or higher frequency (or equivalently, above a threshold frequency),  which leads to the enough energy of the wave to incident and get absorbed to the exposed surface emits electrons. This phenomenon is known as the photoelectric effect or photo-emission.

The minimum amount of energy required by a metal surface to eject an electron from its surface is called work function of metal surface.

The electrons thus emitted are called photo-electrons.

The current produced as a result is called photo electricity.

Energy of photon is given by:

E=h.\nu

where:

h = Planck's constant

\nu= frequency of the incident radiation.

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

734.215N

Explanation:

First we calculate the angle that corresponds to a 5% slope using the Tan-1 function

\beta = tan-1(5%)=2.86

then we use the component that corresponds to the direction parallel to the road, additionally we must multiply by the gravity value to find the weight(g=9.81m/s^2)

Wx=M*g*sen(2.86)=1500kg*9.81*sen(2.86)=734.215N

The voltage entering a transformer’s primary winding is 120 volts. The primary winding is wrapped around the iron core 10 times.
loris [4]
<u>Answer</u>

 48 Volts  

<u>Explanation</u>
The question can be solve using the turn rule of a transformer that states;

Np/Ns = Vp/Vs
Where Np ⇒ number of turns in the primary coil.
            Ns ⇒number of turns in the seconndary coil
            Vp ⇒ primary voltage
             Vs ⇒secondary voltage

Np/Ns = Vp/Vs

10/4 = 120/Vp

Vp = (120 × 4)/10

      = 480/10
      = 48 Volts

An AC source is connected to a series combination of a light bulb and a variable capacitor. If the capacitance is increased, the
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

Since power P=IV

Then it means when current increases, the power increases hence brightness increases. I represent current, P is power and v is voltage.

Current of capacitor when in series connection is given by

I=2\pi fCV

where I is current across capacitor, f is frequency, C is capacitance and v is voltage across capacitance. From this second formula, it is evident that an increase in capacitance increases the current across the capacitor. Therefore, if current increases, power also increases leading to an increase in brightness
