Answer:

U = - 4 x 10^{-10}

Explanation:

ΔV = potential difference = 2.5 * 10^9 Volts

q = charge on electron = -1.6 * 10^{-19} C

electric potential energy is given as

U = q ΔV = ( -1.6 * 10^{-19}  ) ( 2.5 * 10^9  )

               = - 4 x 10^{-10}

Radio waves from an fm station have a frequency of 103.1 mhz. if the waves travel with a speed of 3.00 ´ 10 m/s, what is the wav
ryzh [129]
The frequency of the radio waves from the fm station is:
f=103.1 MHz = 103.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz
And the speed of the waves corresponds to the speed of light:
v=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s
Therefore, the wavelength of the radio waves can be found by using the following equation:
\lambda= \frac{v}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{103.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=2.91 m

How is photon energy calculated? (choose 2)
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the wave model of light, physicists predicted that increasing light amplitude would increase the kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons, while increasing the frequency would increase measured current.

Contrary to the predictions, experiments showed that increasing the light frequency increased the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, and increasing the light amplitude increased the current.

Based on these findings, Einstein proposed that light behaved like a stream of particles called photons with an energy of \text{E}=h\nuE=hνstart text, E, end text, equals, h, \nu.

The work function, \PhiΦ\Phi, is the minimum amount of energy required to induce photoemission of electrons from a metal surface, and the value of \PhiΦ\Phi depends on the metal.

The energy of the incident photon must be equal to the sum of the metal's work function and the photoelectron kinetic energy:
