E=(mV^2)/2
m=1000kg, V=20m/s
then, E=(1000kg*(20m/s)^2)/2
E=(1000*400)/2 J = 200000J
Answer:
<h2>
E = 2.8028*10⁻¹⁹ Joules</h2>
Explanation:
The minimum energy needed to eject electrons from a metal with a threshold frequency fo is expressed as E = hfo
h = planck's constant
fo = threshold frequency
Given the threshold frequency fo = 4.23×10¹⁴ s⁻¹
h = 6.626× 10⁻³⁴ m² kg / s
Substituting this value into the formula to get the energy E
E = 4.23×10¹⁴ * 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴
E = 28.028*10¹⁴⁻³⁴
E = 28.028*10⁻²⁰
E = 2.8028*10⁻¹⁹ Joules
Alpha particles are released by proton rich unstable nuclei. It has no electrons to balance the protons making it positively charged particles moving at very high speeds. Gamma articles are electromagnetic waves of short wavelength and high frequency. It has a speed same as the speed of light. Beta particles are released by neutron rich unstable nuclei. It has a speed of less than the gamma particles.
