Answer:

1.42 s

Explanation:

The equation for free fall of an object starting from rest is generally written as

s=\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the vertical distance covered

a is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

On this celestial body, the equation is

s=10.04 t^2

this means that

\frac{1}{2}g = 10.04

so the acceleration of gravity on the body is

g=2\cdot 10.04 = 20.08 m/s^2

The velocity of an object in free fall starting from rest is given by

v=gt

In this case,

g = 20.08 m/s^2

So the time taken to reach a velocity of

v = 28.6 m/s

is

t=\frac{v}{g}=\frac{28.6 m/s}{20.08 m/s^2}=1.42 s

The light intensity incident on a metallic surface with a work function of 1.88 eV produces photoelectrons with a maximum kineti
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

KE = KE (incidental) - KE of emitted photons

or KE = h * f - Wf

So   h * f = KE + Wf = 1.2 + 1.88 = 3.08    incident energy

If you double the frequency then h * f = 6.16

KE = 6.16 - 1.2 = 4.96 eV

People, especially adults, are inactive because of "passive" modes of transportation.
enot [183]

The drop in physical activity is partly due to inaction during leisure time and sedentary behaviour on the job and at home. Likewise, an increase in the use of "passive" modes of transportation also contributes to insufficient physical activity.
