Why is it important to understand the concept of density ?

Physics

N76 [4]2 years ago

Density applies to many if not all aspects of life.  With density you can explain why ice floats.   You can explain why oxygen is on the earth, and not floating around in space( or being replaced by another gas).  You can also explain why heat rises while cold air sinks.

1. In a particular experiment to study the photoelectric effect, the frequency of the incident light and the temperature of the
shutvik [7]

Answer: 1. B. The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases.

2. The maximum speed of the emitted electrons increases.

The stopping potential increases

Explanation:

Photoelectric effect is simply referred to as the emission of electrons that occurs when there's an electromagnetic radiation. An example of such electromagnetic radiation is when material is being hit by light.

Assuming that the light incident on the metal surface causes electrons to be ejected from the metal, the number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases if the intensity of the incident light is increased.

Also, if the initial light incident on the metal surface causes electrons to be ejected from the metal, the maximum speed of the emitted electrons increases and the stopping potential increases.

Descriptive investigations involve collecting data about a system, but not making observations .
Angelina_Jolie [31]
The correct statement should be: Descriptive investigations involve collecting data about a system, but not making comparisons. 
so i believe the statement above is false

In descriptive investigations, we shall not make any hypothesis for the situation and we just need to fully record all obeservations.
By doing this, we could fully analyze the variables without comparing and manipulating it.

A first-order reaction has a rate constant of 0.241/min. if the initial concentration of a is 0.859 m, what is the concentration
nordsb [41]

Answer: 0.077 M

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant = 0.241minute^{-1}

t = time taken for decay process = 10 minutes

a = initial amount of the reactant= 0.859 M

a - x = amount left after decay process =?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.241 minutes^{-1}=\frac{2.303}{10.0}\log\frac{0.859}{a-x}

(a-x)=0.077M

Thus the concentration of a after 10.0 minutes is 0.077 M.
