Physics
1 answer:
andriy [413]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

When two materials come in contact with each other , there occurs the movement of electrons from one material to other , hence , there is an excess positive charge on one of the material , and hence lead to static electricity .

Examples -

  • brushing dry hairs via a plastic comb can generate static electricity .
  • Clothes stuck to one another in the dryer
  • Walking on the floor with carpet and touching a door can lead to a shock , due to static electricity .

For a photoelectric tube, calculate the voltage which will be just sufficient to stop electrons emitted by the sodium photo-plat
Talja [164]

Answer:

1.11 V

Explanation:

Given that the Einstein photoelectric equation states that;

KE = E - Wo

E = energy of incident photon

Wo= work function of the metal

E = hf = 6.64 x 10-34 * 6 x 1014

E = 39.84 * 10^-20 J or 3.98  * 10^-19 J

KE = 3.98  * 10^-19 J - 2.2 x 10-19J

KE = 1.78 *  10^-19J

We convert this value of KE to electron volts

KE = 1.78 *  10^-19J/1.6 x 10-19C

KE = 1.11 eV

Hence; 1.11 V will be just sufficient to stop electrons emitted by the sodium photo-plate reaching the collector plate.
