Which feature of the sun appears in cycles of about 11 years?

The Sun's magnetic field goes through a cycle, called the solar cycle. Every 11 years or so, the Sun's magnetic field completely flips. This means that the Sun's north and south poles switch places. Then it takes about another 11 years for the Sun's north and south poles to flip back again.

The light intensity incident on a metallic surface with a work function of 1.88 eV produces photoelectrons with a maximum kineti

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

KE = KE (incidental) - KE of emitted photons

or KE = h * f - Wf

So h * f = KE + Wf = 1.2 + 1.88 = 3.08 incident energy

If you double the frequency then h * f = 6.16

KE = 6.16 - 1.2 = 4.96 eV

The half-life of iodine-131 is 8.04 days. It’s decay constant equals

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Explanation:

we know that half life of an element is

T=0.693/λ

where λ is decay constant in order to find decay constant

λ=0.693/T

λ=0.693/8.04

λ=0.086

A pilot heads his jet due east. The jet has a speed of 475 mi/h relative to the air. The wind is blowing due north with a speed

oksian1 [2.3K]

Explanation:

a. The velocity of the wind as a vector in component form will be represented as v vector:

$v=30j$

b.The velocity of the jet relative to the air as a vector in component form will be represented as u vector

$u=475i$

c. The true velocity of the jet as a vector will be represented as w:

$w=u+v$

$w=475i+30j$

d. The true speed of the jet will be calculated as:

$IwI=\sqrt{(475)^2+(30)^2}$

$IwI=\sqrt{225625+900}$

$IwI=\sqrt{226525}$

$IwI=476 mi/h$

e. The direction of the jet will be:

$tita=tan^{-1}\frac{30}{475}$

$tita=tan^{-1}(0.0632)$

$tita=3.62degrees,or,N86.38degreesS$

A student pushes a box with a total mass of 50 kg. What is the net force on the box if it accelerates 1.5 m/s

Harrizon [31]

We now that follow newton rules f=ma so net force equal to mass*acceleration=>f=50*1.5=75 N
