The light detection device is also called photodetector. It <span>transforms any natural or artificial light source it encounters into sound.
</span>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<span> for some applications. It is also used as the active element in light-activated switches.</span>

4. Brandon throws a tennis ball vertically upward. The ball returns to the point of release after 4.0 s. What is the
vekshin1

Answer:

-39.2m/s

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion;

v = u + at

Since the ball is thrown upward, the acceleration due to gravity acting on it will be negative, hence a = -g

v = u - gt

Since g = 9.8m/s²

t = 4.0s

u = 0m/s

v = 0 + (-9.8)(4)

v = 0 + (-9.8)(4)

v = -39.2m/s

Hence the speed of the ball before release is -39.2m/s

A man wishes to pull a crate 15m across a rough floor by exerting a force of 100 N. The
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

option (E) is correct.

Explanation:

Work done is defined as the product of force and the distance in the direction of force.

force, f = 100 N

Coefficient of friction, = 0.25

distance = 15 m

So, net force F = f - friction force

F = 100 - 0.25 x m g

Work = (100 - 0.25 mg) x d cosθ

For minimum work, the angle should be maximum.

So, the value of θ is 76°.

thus, option (E) is correct.

Choose what colors are absorbed when white light hits a red apple. (Pick all that apply.)
astra-53 [7]
A red apple absorbs all colors of visible light except red, so red light
is the only light left to bounce off of the apple toward our eyes. 
(This is a big part of the reason that we call it a "red" apple.)

Here's how the various items on the list make out when they hit the apple:

<span>Red . . . . . reflected
Orange . . absorbed
Yellow . . . </span><span><span>absorbed
</span>Green . </span><span><span>. . absorbed
</span>Blue . . </span><span><span>. . absorbed
</span>Violet .</span><span> . . absorbed</span>
<span>Black . . . no light; not a color
White . . . has all colors in it</span>
