Answer:

47 mW

Explanation:

The average value of the Poynting vector, S = 0.939 W/m² = Intensity of wave, I

S = I S

Also, I = P/A where P = Et, P = power of electromagnetic wave, E = energy of electromagnetic wave in time t and t = time = 1 min = 60 s and A = area = lb since the electromagnetic waves falls on area equal to that of a rectangle.

So, S = Et/A

E = SA/t

= Slb/t

= 0.939 W/m² × 1.5 m × 2.0 m/60 s

= 2.817 W/60 s

= 0.047 W

= 47 mW

So, 47 mW of electromagnetic energy falls on the area in 1.0 minute.

The maximum wavelength that an electromagnetic wave can have and still eject electrons from a metal surface is 542 nm. What is t
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

2.295 eV

Explanation:

maximum wavelength, λ = 542 nm = 542 x 10^-9 m

The work function of the metal is defined as the minimum amount of energy falling on the metal so that the photo electrons just ejects the surface of metal.

W_{o}=\frac{hc}{\lambda }

where, h is the Plank's constant and c be the speed of light

h = 6.634 x 10^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

W_{o}=\frac{6.634\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}}{542\times10^{-9} }

W_{o}=3.67\times 10^{-19} J=\frac{3.67\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}} eV

Wo = 2.295 eV

Thus, the work function of this metal is 2.295 eV.

Electrical wire with a diameter of .5 cm is wound on a spool with a radius of 30 cm and a height of 24 cm.
kow [346]

Answer:

a)   # lap = 301.59 rad , b)   L = 90.48 m

Explanation:

a) Let's use a direct proportions rule (rule of three). If one turn of the wire covers 0.05 cm, how many turns do you need to cover 24 cm

          # turns = 1 turn (24 cm / 0.5 cm)

         # laps = 48 laps

Let's reduce to radians

        # laps = 48 laps (2 round / 1 round)

       # lap = 301.59 rad

b) Each lap gives a length equal to the length of the circle

          L₀ = 2π R

          L = # turns L₀

          L = # turns 2π R

          L = 48 2π 30

          L = 9047.79 cm

          L = 90.48 m

When nuclear fission occurs, some mass is lost. Where does the mass go?
Hoochie [10]
The situation when nuclear fission occurs, some mass is lost is also called the mass defect and as a result  the matter turns into energy. If you want to know where the mass does go  Albert Einstein will be your helping hand :  E = mc^2. Using this formulae you will solve the task and find out the  direction of mass.
