Answer: a) i) 0 ii) 0  b) i) 0 ii) -25.1 J

Explanation:

a) For the first part, as work is defined as the process through an applied force produces a displacement in the direction of the movement, if the start and the end points are the same (as for a complete circle), this means that there is no displacement, i.e. total work (for any applied force) is 0.

b) Taking only a semicircle from the lowest to the highest point on the path, as tension force is always perpendicular to the displacement, we can conclude that the tension force does no work.

Now, for gravity, the displacement, is just the difference in height between the highest and lowest point, which is equal to twice the length of the string, and is a vector with only a vertical component, as follows:

Δy = y₂ - y₁ (by definition of displacement)

Now, the work done by gravity is just the product of the weight of  the ball, times the vertical displacement (as the work done by gravity is independent of the trajectory) , as follows :

W = m. g. (y₂-y₁) = 0.8 Kg. 9.8 m/s². (-2. 1.6 m) = -25.1 J

(The minus sign is due to gravity and the displacement point in opposite directions, in this case we take as positive the downward direction).

Fofino [41]

Answer:

5.04\cdot 10^8 A

Explanation:

The work function of the metal corresponds to the minimum energy needed to extract a photoelectron from the metal. In this case, it is:

\phi = 3.950\cdot 10^{-19}J

So, the energy of the incoming photon hitting on the metal must be at least equal to this value.

The energy of a photon is given by

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where

h is the Planck's constant

c is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength of the photon

Using E=\phi and solving for \lambda, we find the maximum wavelength of the radiation that will eject electrons from the metal:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{3.950\cdot 10^{-19} J}=5.04\cdot 10^{-7}m

And since

1 angstrom = 10^{-15}m

The wavelength in angstroms is

\lambda=\frac{5.04\cdot 10^{-7} m}{10^{-15} m/A}=5.04\cdot 10^8 A

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

Its best approach to this measurement ought to be to indicate that there was a mistake throughout the calculation, as well as the gathering of further details while researching cells for bacteria, directly measuring the cell length of a colony. This chart illustrates its data, which scientists have observed that there's still a measurement.
