Power  =  Work done  /  Time taken.

Work done =  mgh
Mass, m = 33kg    ( Am presuming it is 33 kg).
h =  85 m.
Work done =  33 * 9.81* 85 =  27517.05  J.

Time taken.
Since object was dropped from height, it fell under gravity.
Using    H =  ut  +  (1/2) * gt^2.              u = 0.
               H =  1/2 gt^2.
               t  =   (2H/g) ^ (1/2)
               t  =  (2*85/9.81) ^ 0.5 =  4.1628 s.

Power  =    27517.05 / 4.1628 = 6610.23 Watts.
             =  6610 W  to  3 S. f.

‏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.

Potassium is a crucial element for the healthy operation of the human body. Potassium occurs naturally in our environment and th
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

a) 0.0288 grams

b) 2.6*10^{-10} J/kg

Explanation:

Given that:

A typical human  body contains about 3.0 grams of Potassium per kilogram of body mass

The abundance  for the three isotopes are:

Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium-41 with abundances are 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728% respectively.

a)

Thus; a person with a mass of 80 kg will posses = 80 × 3 = 240 grams of potassium.

However, the amount of potassium that is present in such person is :

0.012% × 240 grams

= 0.012/100 × 240 grams

= 0.0288 grams

b)

the effective dose (in Sieverts) per year due to Potassium-40 in an 80- kg body is calculate as follows:

First the Dose in (Gy) = \frac{energy \ absorbed }{mass \ of \ the \ body}

= \frac{1.10*10^6*1.6*10^{-14}}{80}

= 2.2*10^{-10} \ J/kg

Effective dose (Sv) = RBE × Dose in Gy

Effective dose (Sv) =  1.2  *2.2*10^{-10} \ J/kg

Effective dose (Sv) = 2.6*10^{-10} J/kg

Well, what's a well? Basically, to obtain water found in an aquifer, a well is a hole drilled into the earth. To pull water from the soil, a pipe and a pump are used and a screen filters out un Wells are drilled into the rock as deep as 1,000 feet to enter the water. ... Through a well pump, water flows through this casing. Above level, the well structure is closed off. From a pipe connected between the casing and a pressure tank (generally located in the basement of your house), the water then reaches your home.
