How does incident light that falls on an object affect the motion of electrons in the atoms of the object?

Physics
1 answer:
KonstantinChe [14]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Incident light makes an electron oscillate. The electrons emit light or absorb the light, collide with other electrons, thereby converting light energy to more internal energy. and convert it to heat.

Light wave of a given frequency is incident on a material with electrons having the same vibrational frequencies, then electrons absorb the energy of the light wave and transform it into vibrational motion.

A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B with arrow at a speed of 2.50 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration
KIM [24]

Answer:

A) B = 0.009185 T

B) Drection is negative y-direction

Explanation:

A) We are given;

Speed(v) = 2.5 x 10^(7) m/s

Acceleration (a) = 2.2 x 10^(13) m/s²

We also know that charge of proton(q) = 1.6 x 10^(-19)

Mass of proton(m) = 1.67 x 10^(-27)

Now, Since the proton is moving by circular motion, this force is equal to the centripetal force which is given as;

F = qvBsinθ = ma

Since perpendicular, θ = 90°

And so, sinθ = sin 90 = 1

Thus, qvB = ma

Making B the subject gives;

B = ma/qv

B = (1.67 X 10^(-27) X 2.2 X 10^13)) / (1.6 X 10^(-19) X 2.5 X 10^(7))

= 0.009185 T

B) By use of Flemings right hand rule, we can see that the middle finger points toward negative y-direction, so the magnetic field is in the negative y-direction

The energy of an object can be converted to heat due to the friction of the car on the hill. The difference between the potentia
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Energy Lost for group A's car = 0.687 J

Energy Lost for group B's car = 0.55 J

Explanation:

The exact question is as follows :

Given - The energy of an object can be converted to heat due to the friction of the car on the hill. The difference between the potential energy of the car and its kinetic energy at the bottom of the hill equals the energy lost due to friction.

To find - How much energy is lost due to heat for group A's car ?

              How much for Group B's car ?

Solution -

We know that,

GPE = 1 Joule (Potential Energy)

Now,

For Group A -

Energy Lost = GPE - KE

                    = 1 J - 0.313 J

                    = 0.687 J

So,

Energy Lost for group A's car = 0.687 J

Now,

For Group B -

Energy Lost = GPE - KE

                    = 1 J - 0.45 J

                    = 0.55 J

So,

Energy Lost for group B's car = 0.55 J

If a 1000-pound capsule weighs only 165 pounds on the moon, how much work is done in propelling this capsule out of the moon's g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

  W = 1,307 10⁶ J

Explanation:

Work is the product of force by distance, in this case it is the force of gravitational attraction between the moon (M) and the capsule (m₁)

              F = G m₁ M / r²

              W = ∫ F. dr

              W = G m₁ M ∫ dr / r²

we integrate

             W = G m₁ M (-1 / r)

                 

We evaluate between the limits, lower r = R_ Moon and r = ∞

           W = -G m₁ M (1 /∞ - 1 / R_moon)

            W = G m1 M / r_moon

Body weight is

             W = mg

             m = W / g

The mass is constant, so we can find it with the initial data

For the capsule

            m = 1000/32 = 165 / g_moon

            g_moom = 165 32/1000

            .g_moon = 5.28 ft / s²

I think it is easier to follow the exercise in SI system  

           W_capsule = 1000 pound (1 kg / 2.20 pounds)

           W_capsule = 454 N

           W = m_capsule g

           m_capsule = W / g

           m = 454 /9.8

           m_capsule = 46,327 kg

Let's calculate

          W = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 46,327   7.36 10²² / 1.74 10⁶

          W = 1,307 10⁶ J
