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 1.00 kg block of ice, at -25.0°C, is warmed by 35 kJ of energy. What is the final temperature of the ice?
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

-8.4°C

Explanation:

From the principle of heat capacity.

The heat sustain by an object is given as;

H = m× c× (T2-T1)

Where H is heat transferred

m is mass of substance

T2-T1 is the temperature change from starting to final temperature T2.

c- is the specific heat capacity of ice .

Note : specific heat capacity is an intrinsic capacity of a substance which is the energy substained on a unit mass of a substance on a unit temperature change.

Hence ; 35= 1× c× ( T2-(-25))

35= c× ( T2+25)

35 =2.108×( T2+25)

( T2+25)= 35/2.108= 16.60°{ approximated to 2 decimal place}

T2= 16.60-25= -8.40°C

C, specific heat capacity of ice is =2.108 kJ/kgK{you can google that}

Observation: You saw/ observed something and you are stating that.

Inference: You are predicting something to be true. If so and so, then this will occur.

A planet in elliptical orbit around a star moves from the point in its orbit furthest from the star (A) to the closest point (P)
Virty [35]

Answer:

Zero work done,since the body isn't acting against  or by gravity.

Explanation:

Gravitational force is usually  considered as work done against gravity (-ve) and work by gravity ( +ve ) and also When work isn't done by or against gravity work done in this case is zero.

Gravitational force can be define as that force that attracts a body to any other phyical body or system that have mass.

The planet been considered as our system in this case is assumed to have mass, and ought to demonstrate such properties associated with gravitational force in such system. Such properties include the return of every object been thrown up as a result of gravity acting downwards. The orbiting nature of object along an elliptical part when gravitational force isn't acting on the body and it is assumed to be zero.

A baseball has mass 0.147 kg. If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 44.5 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55
Anit [1.1K]

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a baseball is 0.147 kg

Initial velocity of the baseball is 44.5 m/s

The ball is moved in the opposite direction with a velocity of 55.5 m/s

It is required to find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.

Change in momentum,

\Delta p=mv-mu\\\\\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\\Delta p=0.147\times ((-55.5)-44.5)\\\\\Delta p=-14.7\ kg-m/s\\\\|\Delta p|=14.7\ kg-m/s

Impulse = 14.7 kg-m/s

Therefore, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat is 14.7 kg-m/s
