As you may well know, placing metal objects inside a microwave oven can generate sparks. Two of your friends are arguing over th

Fofino [41]

Answer:

$5.04\cdot 10^8 A$

Explanation:

The work function of the metal corresponds to the minimum energy needed to extract a photoelectron from the metal. In this case, it is:

$\phi = 3.950\cdot 10^{-19}J$

So, the energy of the incoming photon hitting on the metal must be at least equal to this value.

The energy of a photon is given by

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where

h is the Planck's constant

c is the speed of light

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the photon

Using $E=\phi$ and solving for $\lambda$ , we find the maximum wavelength of the radiation that will eject electrons from the metal:

$\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{3.950\cdot 10^{-19} J}=5.04\cdot 10^{-7}m$

And since

1 angstrom = $10^{-15}m$

The wavelength in angstroms is

$\lambda=\frac{5.04\cdot 10^{-7} m}{10^{-15} m/A}=5.04\cdot 10^8 A$

You look down an old well, cannot see the bottom, and mutter to yourself "Oh well!". In order to estimate the depth of the well,

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The best estimate of the depth of the well is 2.3 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Record time,

$t_{1}=2.19\ sec$

$t_{2}=2.30\ sec$

$t_{3}=2.26\ sec$

$t_{4}=2.29\ sec$

$t_{5}=2.27\ sec$

We need to find the best estimate of the depth of the well

According to record time,

We can write of the record time

$t_{1}=2.19\approx 2.2\ sec$

$t_{2}=2.30\approx 2.3\ sec$

$t_{3}=2.26\approx 2.3\ sec$

$t_{4}=2.29\approx 2.3\ sec$

$t_{5}=2.27\approx 2.3\ sec$

Here, all time is nearest 2.3 sec.

So, we can say that the best estimate of the depth of the well is 2.3 sec.

Hence, The best estimate of the depth of the well is 2.3 sec.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Clinical Thermometer is meant for clinical purposes. It is developed for measuring the human body temperature. A laboratory thermometer, which is colloquially known as the lab thermometer, is used for measuring temperatures other than the human body temperature.

When a man returns to his well-sealed house on a summer day, he finds that the house is at 35°C. He turns on the air conditioner

Paul [167]

Answer:

1353.38 Watt

Explanation:

T₁ = Initial temperature of the house = 35°C

T₂ = Final temperature of the house = 20°C

Δt = Time taken to cool the house = 38 min = 38×60 = 2280 s

m = mass of air in the house = 800 kg

Cv = Specific heat at constant volume = 0.72 kJ/kgK

Cp = Specific heat at constant pressure = 1.0 kJ/kgK

Heat removed

q = mCvΔT

⇒q = 800×720×(35-20)

⇒q = 8640000 J

Average rate of hear removal

$Q=\frac{q}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow Q=\frac{8640000}{2280}\\\Rightarrow Q=3789.47\ W$

$COP=\frac{Q}{W}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{Q}{COP}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{3789.47}{2.8}\\\Rightarrow W=1353.38\ W$

∴ Power drawn by the air conditioner is 1353.38 Watt
