Answer:

Minimum required frequency is υmin = 654.9 x 10¹² Hz

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by the equation:

E = hυ

where,

E = energy of photon

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

υ = frequency

The minimum energy of photon, must be equal to the work function of Calcium.

Emin = ∅₀ = h(υmin)

υmin = ∅₀/h

where,

υmin = minimum frequency

∅₀ = work function = 4.34 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Therefore,

υmin = 4.34 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/6.625 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

<u>υmin = 654.9 x 10¹² Hz</u>

Why is weathering slow in cold, dry places?
Alexxandr [17]

Rate of weathering depends on temperature and moisture. Cold dry places have less water to weather things

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

public int dimension(int [][]a2d,int nElements)

{

int count = 0;

for(int i = 0;i < a2d.length ; i++)

{

count = count + a2d[i].length;

}

return count;

}
