Answer:A) 220 nm

Explanation:

Given

Maximum Kinetic Energy K.E.=1.10 eV

Work Function W=4.65 eV

from Einstein Equation

h\mu =W+K.E.

h\cdot \frac{c}{\lambda }=W+K.E.

h\cdot \frac{c}{\lambda }=4.65+1.10

6.626\times 10^{-34}\cdot \frac{3\times 10^8}{\lambda }=5.75

1 eV=1.6\times 10^{-19} J

thus 5.75 eV=9.2\times 10^{-19} J

\lambda =\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\time 3\times 10^8}{9.2\times 10^{-19}}

\lambda =216.06 nm\approx 220 nm

The answer is "B" - If there are no windows then there will be no light coming in, and therefore you don't have to worry about what time of day you do the experiment at.

A concrete piling of 50 kg is suspended from a steel wire of diameter 1.0 mm and length 11.2 m. How much will the wire stretch?
pentagon [3]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of concrete pilling, m = 50 kg

Diameter of wire, d = 1 mm

Radius of wire, r = 0.0005 m

Length of wire, L = 11.2

Young modulus of steel, Y=20\times 10^{10}\ N/m^2

The young modulus of a wire is given by :

Y=\dfrac{\dfrac{F}{A}}{\dfrac{\Delta L}{L}}

Y=\dfrac{F.L}{A\Delta L}

\Delta L=\dfrac{F.L}{A.Y}

\Delta L=\dfrac{50\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 11.2\ m}{\pi (0.0005\ m)^2\times 20\times 10^{10}\ N/m^2}

\Delta L=0.034\ m

So, the wire will stretch 0.034 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

a student standing in an elevator at rest notices that her pendulum has a frequency of oscillation of 0.5 Hz. a. what is the len
EastWind [94]

Answer:

L = 0.99 m = 99 cm

Explanation:

The period is the reciprocal of the frequency.

T = 1/0.5 = 2.0 s

T = 2π√(L/g)

L = g(T/2π)²

L = 9.8(2.0/2π)² = 0.99 m

If the system accelerates upward, it will cause the apparent gravity to increase. This will require a longer pendulum to keep the same period, or shorten the period if the length remains the same. This shows up in the equation where the product of gravity and the square of the period must remain constant for the length to remain constant.

Electrical energy in motion is what type of energy ?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

kinetic energy

Explanation:

Electrical energy is a type of kinetic energy caused by moving electric charges. The amount of energy depends on the speed of the charges – the faster they move, the more electrical energy they carry.
