Gravity pulls mass towards its center, therefore as matter is pulled towards a source of gravity it will naturally coalesce into a ball as matter competes to head towards the source of gravity.

B. inference because she drew a conclusion based on evidence.

Because the evidence was that she heard the crashing sound, and then when she came into her room saw the broken window and baseball.

It was not an observation because she did not directly see the baseball going through the window

In an experiment to study the photoelectric effect, a scientist measures the kinetic energy of ejected electrons as afunction of
crimeas [40]

Answer:

a) v₀ = 4.41 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹

b) W₀ = 176 KJ/mol of ejected electrons

c) From the graph, light of frequency less than v₀ will not cause electrons to break free from the surface of the metal. Electron kinetic energy remains at zero as long as the frequency of incident light is less than v₀.

d) When frequency of the light exceeds v₀, there is an increase of electron kinetic energy from zero steadily upwards with a constant slope. This is because, once light frequency exceeds, v₀, its energy too exceeds the work function of the metal and the electrons instantaneously gain the energy of incident light and convert this energy to kinetic energy by breaking free and going into motion. The energy keeps increasing as the energy and frequency of incident light increases and electrons gain more speed.

e) The slope of the line segment gives the Planck's constant. Explanation is in the section below.

Explanation:

The plot for this question which is attached to this solution has Electron kinetic energy on the y-axis and frequency of incident light on the x-axis.

a) Wavelength, λ = 680 nm = 680 × 10⁻⁹ m

Speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

The frequency of the light, v₀ = ?

Frequency = speed of light/wavelength

v₀ = (3 × 10⁸)/(680 × 10⁻⁹) = 4.41 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹

b) Work function, W₀ = energy of the light photons with the wavelength of v₀ = E = hv₀

h = Planck's constant = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

E = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ × 4.41 × 10¹⁴ = 2.92 × 10⁻¹⁹J

E in J/mol of ejected electrons

Ecalculated × Avogadros constant

= 2.92 × 10⁻¹⁹ × 6.023 × 10²³

= 1.76 × 10⁵ J/mol of ejected electrons = 176 KJ/mol of ejected electrons

c) Light of frequency less than v₀ does not possess enough energy to cause electrons to break free from the metal surface. The energy of light with frequency less than v₀ is less than the work function of the metal (which is the minimum amount of energy of light required to excite electrons on metal surface enough to break free).

As evident from the graph, electron kinetic energy remains at zero as long as the frequency of incident light is less than v₀.

d) When frequency of the light exceeds v₀, there is an increase of electron kinetic energy from zero steadily upwards with a constant slope. This is because, once light frequency exceeds, v₀, its energy too exceeds the work function of the metal and the electrons instantaneously gain the energy of incident light and convert this energy to kinetic energy by breaking free and going into motion. The energy keeps increasing as the energy and frequency of incident light increases and electrons gain more speed.

e) The slope of the line segment gives the Planck's constant. From the mathematical relationship, E = hv₀,

And the slope of the line segment is Energy of ejected electrons/frequency of incident light, E/v₀, which adequately matches the Planck's constant, h = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

Hope this Helps!!!

A greenhouse is filled with air that cotains more carbon dixoide than normal air has. How might phothsyphness and plant growth b
vekshin1

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

We know that photosynthesis involves the combination of carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight to yield glucose.

If the atmosphere is rich in carbon dioxide such as  in a green house where air is filled with carbon dioxide, the rate of photosynthesis is increased.

As the rate of photosynthesis is increased, the growth of plants is also increased.

Hence, in a greenhouse where the air contains more carbon dioxide, the rate of plant growth increases.

The element carbon (C) is most likely to form covalent bonds with the element
pochemuha
<span>Carbon (C) is most likely to form covalent bonds with Beryllium (Be) or Sodium (Na) because they are both metals and covalent bonds are metals that share their valence electrons with the gases / non-metals to get to the stable octet. Krypton is a gas and Selenium is a metalloid</span>
