Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.4 mm (0.00040 m).

Explanation:

From the Young's interference expression, we have;

(λ ÷ d) = (Δy ÷ D)

where λ is the wavelength of the light, D is the distance of the slit to the screen, d is the width of slit and Δy is the fringe separation.

Thus,

d = (Dλ) ÷ Δy

D = 3.30 m, Δy = 4.7 mm (0.0047 m) and λ = 563 nm (563 ×10^{-9} m)

d = (3.30 × 563 ×10^{-9} ) ÷ (0.0047)

  = 1.8579 × 10^{-6} ÷ 0.0047

  = 0.0003951 m

d = 0.00040 m

The width of the slit is 0.4 mm (0.00040 m).

‏Explain how an electron emitted by the photoelectric effect can have kinetic energy less than threshold energy ?
xenn [34]

Answer:

the photons (quanta of light) collide with the electrons, these electrons have to overcome the threshold energy that is the energy of union with the metal, and the energy that remains is converted to kinetic energy.

          K = E - Ф

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons from the surface of a metal.

This was correctly explained by Einstein, in his explanation the energy of the photons (quanta of light) collide with the electrons, these electrons have to overcome the threshold energy that is the energy of union with the metal, and the energy that remains is converted to kinetic energy.

          E = hf

          E = K + Ф

          K = E - Ф

The energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation E = hf and according to Einstein the number of joints must be added

            E = n hf

Therefore, depending on the value of this energy, the emitted electrons can have energy from zero onwards.

If Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy, A)compression B)w
Gnesinka [82]
Salutations!

If Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy,  _______________ is being done.

<span>If Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy, work is being done. Energy being transferred and the object begins to move is called work.

Thus, your answer is option B.

Hope I helped (:
