What is the speed of an electron that has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 1020 V?

1 answer:

8 0

<span>a. KE in electron volts is 1020 eV.
b. KE in Joules is e(1020) = (1.6022E-19)(1020) = 1.634E-16
c. KE = (1/2)mv^2, so v = sqrt[2*KE/m] = 18.94E6 m/s

note: m is the mass of an electron = 9.109e-31 kg

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

Answer:

1. F and G.

2. D

3. A and E.

4. B

5. C

Explanation:

1. Acceleration: An increase in a body's velocity. An increase in a body's speed.

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

2. Kinematics: a study of moving bodies i.e physical objects in motion.

Motion can be defined as a change in the location (position) of a physical object or body with respect to a reference point.

This ultimately implies that, motion would occur as a result of a change in location (position) of an object with respect to a reference point or frame of reference i.e where it was standing before the effect of an external force.

3. Inertia: A tendency of a body to keep moving. A state of balance of forces on a body and the body remains either at rest or in uniform motion.

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

In physics, Sir Isaac Newton's First Law of Motion is known as Law of Inertia and it states that, an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

4. Velocity: Fastness and direction of a body.

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

5. Reaction: an opposite force.

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move, etc.

What is science?

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h2>I don't know the answer but I have explanation </h2>

Explanation:

<h3>Science is further treated in a number of articles. For the history of Western and Eastern science, see science, history of. For the conceptualization of science and its interrelationships with culture, see science, philosophy of. For the basic aspects of the scientific approach, see physical science, principles of; and scientific method.Science can be divided into different branches based on the subject of study. The physical sciences study the inorganic world and comprise the fields of astronomy, physics, chemistry, and the Earth sciences. The biological sciences such as biology and medicine study the organic world of life and its processes. Social sciences like anthropology and economics study the social and cultural aspects of human behaviour.Science, any system of knowledge that is concerned with the physical world and its phenomena and that entails unbiased observations and systematic experimentation. In general, a science involves a pursuit of knowledge covering general truths or the operations of fundamental laws.</h3>

klemol [59]

Answer:

The work function ϕ of the metal = 53.4196 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

Explanation:

When light is incident on a photoelectric material like metal, photoelectrons are emitted from the surface of the metal. This process is called photoelectric effect.

The relationship between the maximum kinetic energy ( $E_{k}$ ) of the photoelectrons to the frequency of the absorbed photons (f) and the threshold frequency (f₀) of the photoemissive metal surface is:

$E_{k}$ = h(f − f₀)

$E_{k}$ = hf - hf₀

E is the energy of the absorbed photons: E = hf

ϕ is the work function of the surface: ϕ = hf₀

$E_{k}$ = E - ϕ

Frequency f = 8.12×10¹⁸ Hz

Maximum kinetic energy $E_{k}$ = 4.16×10⁻¹⁷ J

Speed of light c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Planck's constant h = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js

E = hf = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ x 8.12×10¹⁸

E = 53.8356 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

from $E_{k}$ = E - ϕ ;

ϕ = E - $E_{k}$

ϕ = 53.8356 x 10⁻¹⁶ - 4.16×10⁻¹⁷

ϕ = 53.4196 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

The work function of the metal ϕ = 53.4196 x 10⁻¹⁶ J
