Answer:

Diffraction pattern are due to interference.

Explanation:

Diffraction patterns are due to interference. Diffraction is the process of bending of light when it reaches the obstacle. A diffraction pattern is formed at the screen in which there are some bright and dark band.

Diffraction can be done using single slit, diffraction grating and double silt. Hence, the correct option is (a) "interference ".

When light of wavelength 240 nm falls on a cobalt surface, electrons having a maximum kinetic energy of 0.17 eV are emitted. Fin

dusya [7]

Answer:

(a) 5.04 eV (B) 248.14 nm (c) $1.21\times 10^{15}Hz$

Explanation:

We have given Wavelength of the light \lambda = 240 nm

According to plank's rule ,energy of light

$E = h\nu = \frac{hc}{}\lambda$

$E = h\nu = \frac{6.67\times 10^{-34} J.s\times 3\times 10^{8}m/s}{ 240\times 10^{-9} m\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}J/eV}= 5.21 eV$

Maximum KE of emitted electron i= 0.17 eV

Part( A) Using Einstien's equation

$E = KE_{max}+\Phi _{0}$ , here $\Phi _0$ is work function.

$\Phi _{0}=E - KE_{max}$ = 5.21 eV-0.17 eV = 5.04 eV

Part( B) We have to find cutoff wavelength

$\Phi _{0} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{cuttoff}}$

$\lambda_{cuttoff}= \frac{hc}{\Phi _{0} }$

$\lambda_{cuttoff}= \frac{6.67\times 10^{-34} J.s\times 3\times 10^{8}m/s}{5.04 eV\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}J/eV }=248.14 nm$

Part (C) In this part we have to find the cutoff frequency

$\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda_{cuttoff}}= \frac{3\times 10^{8}m/s}{248.14 \times 10^{-19} m }= 1.21\times 10^{15} Hz$

Three resistances 2 ohm ,3ohm and 5 ohm are connected in parallel and a

hammer [34]

The potential difference across 3 Ohm resistor is 20V.

The resistors are connected in parallel which means all the three resistances have a fully potential difference of 20V.

Two blocks of ice, one four times as heavy as the other, are at rest on a frozen lake. A person pushes each block the same dista

qaws [65]

Answer:b

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object is 4m

mass of lighter object is m

A person pushes each block with same force F

According to Work Energy theorem Change in kinetic energy of object is equal to Work done by all the object

As launching velocity is same for both the object so heavier mass must possess greater kinetic energy . For same force heavier mass must be pushed 4 times farther than the light block .

$\Delta (K.E.)_H=\frac{1}{2}(4m)v^2$
