Explanation:

When rocks continues to grind against another forcefully, they reach a point where they exceed their elastic limit forcing them into an elastic rebound resulting into a fault and generation of a sudden movement in form of an earthquake.

The elastic rebound theory was proposed by Henry Reid to explain the occurrence of the San Francisco earthquake in 1906.

  • He developed the elastic rebound theory where stressed rocks release energy after snap and break.
  • Such rocks must have accumulated enough stress and the elastic limit exceed.
  • The sudden release of energy causes earthquake and the process by which the deformed rocks snaps is the elastic rebound.
  • The evidence of this is usually seen in the formation of faults.

Electromagnetic radiation of 8.12×10¹⁸ Hz frequency is applied on a metal surface and caused electron emission. Determine the wo
klemol [59]

Answer:

The work function ϕ of the metal = 53.4196 x 10⁻¹⁶ J      

Explanation:

When light is incident on a photoelectric material like metal, photoelectrons are emitted from the surface of the metal. This process is called photoelectric effect.

The relationship between the maximum kinetic energy (E_{k}) of the photoelectrons to the frequency of the absorbed photons (f) and the threshold frequency (f₀) of the photoemissive metal surface is:

                                        E_{k} = h(f − f₀)

                                        E_{k} = hf - hf₀

E is the energy of the absorbed photons:  E = hf

ϕ is the work function of the surface:  ϕ = hf₀

                                        E_{k} = E - ϕ

Frequency f = 8.12×10¹⁸ Hz

Maximum kinetic energy E_{k} = 4.16×10⁻¹⁷ J  

Speed of light  c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Planck's constant h = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js                                

                                        E = hf = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ x 8.12×10¹⁸

                                        E = 53.8356 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

from E_{k} = E - ϕ ;

                                        ϕ = E - E_{k}

                                        ϕ = 53.8356 x 10⁻¹⁶ - 4.16×10⁻¹⁷

                                        ϕ = 53.4196 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

The work function of the metal ϕ = 53.4196 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

1. List one way mitosis and meiosis are the same and one way they are different.
kolbaska11 [484]
1. They both are same in the process, I mean they both are types of cell division they both form and give rise to new cells from the existing ones
difference would be in their division a mitotic cell gives rise to 2 cells where as a meiotic cell gives rise to 4.
2. the advantage of sexual reproduction is that , it produces genetic variation, disadvantage is it's a very slow process and takes lot of time
3. the advantage is that ,it's a very rapid process as it doesn't involve complex interactions. of genes and chromosomal recombination, the disadvantage would be is that they don't produce variation which can have adverse affect on their survival, even due to slightest change in the environment
4. Undergoing both the type of cell division is good as in human mitotic division is meant for growth and development whereas meiotic divisions are necessary and important for gametes formation and for raising new generation
