Answer:

λ = 5.4196 10⁻⁷m,  λ = 541.96 nm    this is green ligh

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was explained by Eintein assuming that the light was made up of particles called photons and these collided with the electrons taking them out of the material.

 

                     K = h f -Ф

where K is the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons, hf is the energy of the light quanta and fi is the work function of the material.

The speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

                   c = λ / f

                  f = c /λ

we substitute

                K = h c / λ - Φ

for the case that they ask us the kinetic energy of the electons is zero (K = 0)

                 h c / λ = Ф

                λ = h c / Ф

we calculate

                 λ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴  3 10⁸ / 3.67 10⁻¹⁸

                 λ = 5.4196 10⁻⁷m

let's take nm

                lam = 541.96 nm

this is green light

Determine whether the given value is a statistic or a parameter. a homeowner measured the voltage supplied to his home on 20 day
Gelneren [198K]
<span>For this example, the value presented would be considered a statistic. The value is a statistic as it represents a numerical measurement of a sample. If it were a parameter, it would need to represent a numerical measurement of a population.</span>

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 9.7-mm thick. The concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.664 and 0.3
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

844°C

Explanation:

The problem can be easily solve by using Fick's law and the Diffusivity or diffusion coefficient.

We know that Fick's law is given by,

J = - D \frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}

Where \frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x} is the concentration of gradient

D is the diffusivity coefficient

and J is the flux of atoms.

In the other hand we have, that

D= D_0 e^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}

Where D_0 is the proportionality constant,

R is the gas constant, T the temperature and E_d is the activation energy.

Replacing the value of diffusivity coefficient in Fick's law we have,

J = -D_0 ^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}\frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}

Rearrange the equation to get the value of temperature,

T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}

We have all the values in our equation.

\Delta c = 0.664-0.339 = 0.325 C. cm^{-1}

\Delta x = 9.7*10^{-3}m

E_d = 82000J

D_0 = 6.5*10^{-7}m^2/s

J = 3.2*10^{-9}m^2/s

R= 8.31Jmol^{-1}K

Substituting,

T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}

T=-\frac{-82000}{(8.31)ln(\frac{3.2*10^{-9}(9.7*10^{-3})}{6.5*10^{-7} (0.325)})}

T=1118.07K=844\°C
