Violet light of wavelength 400 nm ejects electrons with a maximum kinetic energy of 0.860 eV from sodium metal. What is the bind
Travka [436]

Answer:

Binding Energy = 2.24 eV

Explanation:

First, we need to find the energy of the photon of light:

E = hc/λ

where,

E = Energy of Photon = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of light = 400 nm = 4 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

E = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(4 x 10⁻⁷ m)

E = (4.97 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

E = 3.1 eV

Now, from Einstein's Photoelectric Equation:

E = Binding Energy + Kinetic Energy

Binding Energy = E - Kinetic Energy

Binding Energy = 3.1 eV - 0.86 eV

<u>Binding Energy = 2.24 eV</u>

Light from a helium-neon laser (λ=633nm) passes through a circular aperture and is observed on a screen 4.0 m behind the apertur
devlian [24]

Answer:

d = 0.247 mm

Explanation:

given,

λ = 633 nm

distance from the hole to the screen = L = 4 m

width of the central maximum = 2.5 cm

                                             2 y = 0.025 m

                                               y = 0.0125 m

For circular aperture

  sin \theta = 1.22\dfrac{\lambda}{d}

using small angle approximation

  \theta = \dfrac{y}{D}

now,

   \dfrac{y}{D} = 1.22\dfrac{\lambda}{d}

   y = 1.22\dfrac{\lambda\ D}{d}

   d = 1.22\dfrac{\lambda\ D}{y}

   d = 1.22\dfrac{633\times 10^{-9}\times 4}{0.0125}

         d =0.247 x 10⁻³ m

         d = 0.247 mm

the diameter of the hole is equal to 0.247 mm

An electric pump has 2kW power . How much water will it lift every minute if the height is 10 m ?
valkas [14]

Answer:

Given that,

  • Power = 2000 W
  • time = 60 seconds
  • distance= 10m

Power = work done ÷ time

Here, since the movement is vertical, w = mgh

So,

Power = mgh÷t

2000 = (m × 9.8 ×10) ÷ 60

m = (2000 ×60) ÷98

m = 1224.5kg
