Recall from Chapter 1 that a watt is a unit of en- ergy per unit time, and one watt (W) is equal to one joule per second ( J·s–1
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by the equation E_p=h f, where h is the <em>Planck constant</em> and f the frequency of the photon. Thus, N photons of frequency f will give an energy of E_N=N h f.

We also know that frequency and wavelength are related by f=\frac{c}{\lambda}, so we have E_N=\frac{N h c}{\lambda}, where c is the <em>speed of light</em>.

We will want the number of photons, so we can write

N=\frac{\lambda E_N}{h c}

We need to know then how much energy do we have to calculate N. The equation of power is P=E/t, so for the power we have and considering 1 second we can calculate the total energy, and then only consider the 4% of it which will produce light, or better said, the N photons, which means it will be E_N.

Putting this paragraph in equations:

E_N=(\frac{4}{100})E=0.04Pt=(0.04)(100W)(1s)=4J.

And then we can substitute everything in our equation for number of photons, in S.I. and getting the values of constants from tables:

N=\frac{\lambda E_N}{h c}=\frac{(520 \times10^{-9}m) (4J)}{(6.626\times10^{-34}Js) (299792458m/s)}=1.047 \times10^{19}

An electron is in motion at 4.0 × 106 m/s horizontally when it enters a region of space between two parallel plates, as shown, s
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

xmax = 9.5cm

Explanation:

In this case, the trajectory described by the electron, when it enters in the region between the parallel plates, is a semi parabolic trajectory.

In order to find the horizontal distance traveled by the electron you first calculate the vertical acceleration of the electron.

You use the Newton second law and the electric force on the electron:

F_e=qE=ma             (1)

q: charge of the electron = 1.6*10^-19 C

m: mass of the electron = 9.1*10-31 kg

E: magnitude of the electric field = 4.0*10^2N/C

You solve the equation (1) for a:

a=\frac{qE}{m}=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(4.0*10^2N/C)}{9.1*10^{-31}kg}=7.03*10^{13}\frac{m}{s^2}

Next, you use the following formula for the maximum horizontal distance reached by an object, with semi parabolic motion at a height of d:

x_{max}=v_o\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}             (2)

Here, the height d is the distance between the plates d = 2.0cm = 0.02m

vo: initial velocity of the electron = 4.0*10^6m/s

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (2):

x_{max}=(4.0*10^6m/s)\sqrt{\frac{2(0.02m)}{7.03*10^{13}m/s^2}}\\\\x_{max}=0.095m=9.5cm

The horizontal distance traveled by the electron is 9.5cm

Imagine that the earth and the-moon have positive charges of the same magnitud. How big isäºthe charge necesary to produce an el
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

5.7 x 10^12 C

Explanation:

Let the charge on earth and moon is q.

mass of earth, Me = 5.972 x 10^24 kg

mass of moon, Mm = 7.35 x 10^22 kg

Let d be the distance between earth and moon.

the gravitational force between them is

F_{g}=G\frac{M_{e} \times M_{m}}{d^{2}}

The electrostatic force between them is

F_{e}=\frac{Kq^{2}}{d^{2}}

According to the question

1 % of Fg = Fe

0.01 \times 6.67\times10^{-11}\frac{5.97 \times 10^{24}\times7.35 \times 10^{22}}{d^{2}}=9 \times 10^{9}\frac{q^{2}}{d^{2}}

2.927 \times 10^{35}=9 \times10^{9}q^{2}

3.25 \times 10^{25}=q^{2}

q = 5.7 x 10^12 C

Thus, the charge on earth and the moon is 5.7 x 10^12 C.
