Answer:
Ф = 2.179 eV
Explanation:
This exercise has electrons ejected from a metal, which is why it is an exercise on the photoelectric effect, which is explained assuming the existence of energy quanta called photons that behave like particles.
E = K + Ф
the energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation
E = h f
we substitute
h f = K + Ф
Ф= hf - K
the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency
c = λ f
f = c /λ
Φ =
let's reduce the energy to the SI system
K = 0.890 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1eV) = 1.424 10⁻¹⁹ J
calculate
Ф = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/405 10⁻⁹ -1.424 10⁻¹⁹
Ф = 4.911 10⁻¹⁹ - 1.424 10⁻¹⁹
Ф = 3.4571 10⁻¹⁹ J
we reduce to eV
Ф = 3.4871 10⁻¹⁹ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)
Ф = 2.179 eV
Answer:
UV light is more powerful as it has greater energy.
Explanation:
The energy propagated by electromagnetic waves ( light ) through vacuum or medium is known as electromagnetic radiation.
The frequency/wavelength range of electromagnetic radiation is known as electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum ranging from gamma ray to radio waves.
Frequency range of UV light = ( 8 x 10¹⁴ to 3 x 10¹⁶ ) Hz
Frequency range of Microwaves = ( 300 x 10⁶ to 300 x 10⁹ ) Hz
Ratio of UV light to Microwaves = ( to
)
= ( 2.66 x 10⁶ to 1 x 10⁸ )
Energy of electromagnetic radiation is given by the relation:
E = hν
Here h is plank's constant and ν is frequency.
UV light is more powerful than Microwaves as frequency of UV light is greater than frequency of microwaves. Thus, by the above equation, the energy of UV light is more than energy of Microwaves.
