Light striking a metal surface causes electrons to be emitted from the metal via the photoelectric effect.In a particular experi

ANEK [815]

The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases if the intensity of the incident light is increased.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

As a result of photoelectric effect, electrons are emitted by the light incident on a metal surface. The emitted electrons count and its kinetic energy can measure as the function of light intensity and frequency. Like physicists, at the 20th century beginning, it should be expected that the light wave's energy (its intensity) will be transformed into the kinetic energy of emitted electrons.

In addition, the electrons count emitting from metal must vary with light wave frequency. This frequency relationship was expected because the electric field oscillates due to the light wave and the metal electrons react to different frequencies. In other words, the number of electrons emitted was expected to be frequency dependent and their kinetic energy should be dependent on the intensity (constant wavelength) of light.

Thus, the maximum in kinetic energy of electrons emitted increases with increase in light's frequency and is experimentally independent of light intensity. So, the number of emitted electrons is proportionate to the intensity of the incident light.

Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 300kg. They collide. Spaceship 1's final speed is 3 m/s, and Spaceship 2's fina

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

B. 1500 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Momentum p = m* v

In any type of collision, the total momentum is preserved!

The total momentum before and the total momentum after the collision is the same. We know the mass and speed after the collision so we can calculate the total momentum.

p1 + p2 =

m1*v1 + m2*v2

m1 = me = 300 kg

v1 = 3 m/s

v2 = 2 m/s

Substitute the given numbers:

300*3 + 300+2

900 + 600

1500 kg*m/s, which is answer B.

A 38.5kg man is in an elevator accelerating downward. A normal force of 343n pushes up on him. what is his acceleration?

alexira [117]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.91 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

$a = \frac{343}{38.5} = \frac{98}{11} \\ = 8.909090...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A toy car moves 8 min 4 s at the constant velocity. What is the car's velocity?

Schach [20]

Explanation:

Formula:

$velocity = (d \div t)$

d = distance given

t = the amount of time given

Substitute the given values into the formula for velocity:

$v = 8 \div 4$

velocity is shortened for v.

8 (distance) divided by 4 (time) equals the velocity.

Solve:

$2 = 8 \div 4$

The velocity of the toy car equals: B. 2 m/s.
