consider the photoelectric effect experiment. in one experiment yellow light shines on a piece of potassium metal. a current is

measured meaning electrons are ejected from the potassium metal. what would happen if the intensity of the yellow light increased

Explanation:

If the intensity of the yellow light increased, meaning more photons will strike the Potassium metal per unit area. This will cause more ejection of electrons from the metal and hence, the strength of current will also increase as we know that

I = Q/t, as the charge increase , the current will also increase.

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

a) 17.33 V/m

b) 6308 m/s

Explanation:

We start by using equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2at², where

s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m

u = 0 m/s

t = 3.8*10^-6 s, so that

0.012 = 0 * 3.8*10^-6 + 0.5 * a * (3.8*10^-6)²

0.012 = 0.5 * a * 1.444*10^-11

a = 0.012 / 7.22*10^-12

a = 1.66*10^9 m/s²

If we assume the electric field to be E, and we know that F =qE. Also, from Newton's law, we have F = ma. So that, ma = qE, and E = ma/q, where

E = electric field

m = mass of proton

a = acceleration

q = charge of proton

E = (1.67*10^-27 * 1.66*10^9) / 1.6*10^-19

E = 2.77*10^-18 / 1.6*10^-19

E = 17.33 V/m

Final speed of the proton can be gotten by using

v = u + at

v = 0 + 1.66*10^9 * 3.8*10^-6

v = 6308 m/s

What forces are being used when walking a dog and how ?
natta225 [31]
There are tons of forces that balance out on your body while you walk. Subsequent physics classes will tell you about each and how they are represented. Here are a few in order of how people usually learn them.

Gravity: The earth exerts a gravitational force on each particle in your body that has mass. Overall, this can be represented as a single force that pulls directly toward the center of the earth from the point called your center of mass.

Normal Force: The contact between your feet/shoes and the ground exerts a force normal (straight out from) the ground. If you are on flat ground, this force is directly opposite the force of gravity, and in most cases will be equal to it such that you have no vertical net force.

Friction: Friction between your shoes/feet and the ground, pointing parallel to the ground and in the direction of your walking motion creates the force necessary for you to move. The microscopic peaks and valleys of the ground and your feet/shoes create small normal forces that can sum into a direction of motion.

Air Buoyancy: Since you are in a fluid, the mass of the fluid you displace creates an upward force away from the center of the earth. Since the density of air is miniscule, this force is generally neglected except in the most precise of circumstances.

Drag and Air resistance: While you walk, as you move through a fluid, that fluid exerts friction on your body in the form of drag. It is usually small unless you’re moving very fast relative to the fluid.

Air pressure, blood pressure, body tensions: Your body has a balance of blood pressure, muscle tensions, which oppose outside air pressures which equalize out to form the shape your body is in.

Internal forces: Many forces act within you such as air pressure, other muscle tensions, and internal stresses which balance out. Usually in physics these are lumped under internal forces.

a wire is carrying a 2.45 A current. at what distance from the wire is the magnetic field 1.00x10^-6t
balu736 [363]

Answer:

0.49m

Explanation:

So you need to change the original equation for finding fields to find distance, and then just plug in the numbers

Which equals 0.49meters

Also it was right on Acellus :)

Hope this helps
