1 answer:

7 0

The light detection device is also called photodetector. It transforms any natural or artificial light source it encounters into sound.
Current flows in a light detection device when light collide with its pn junction.
When light falls on the junction, a reverse current flows which is proportional to the illuminance. The linear response to light makes it an element in useful photodetectors for some applications. It is also used as the active element in light-activated switches.

The magnitude of the force associated with the gravitational field is constant and has a value FF . A particle is launched from

uysha [10]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the particle will be 12U₀

Explanation:

Given that,

A particle is launched from point B with an initial velocity and reaches point A having gained U₀ joules of kinetic energy.

Constant force = 12F

According to question,

The kinetic energy is

$U_{0}=Fx$ ....(I)

Constant force = 12F

A resistive force field is now set up ,

Resistive force is given by,

$F_{r}=12F$

When the particle moves from point B to point A then,

We need to calculate the kinetic energy

Using formula for kinetic energy

$U=F_{r}x$

Put the value of $F_{r}$

$U=12Fx$

Now, from equation (I)

$U=12U_{0}$

Hence, The kinetic energy of the particle will be 12U₀.

Examine the scenario. Object A has 5 protons and 5 electrons. Object B has 5 protons and 7 electrons. Which option most accurate

Travka [436]

Last choice on the list:
Object A has a net charge of 0 because the positive and negative
charges are balanced.
Object B has a net charge of –2 because there is an imbalance of
charged particles (2 more negative electrons than positive protons).
