The answer is: Motion!
Have a great day
Answer:
Explanation:
In order to convert the work function of cesium from electronvolts to Joules, we must use the following conversion factor:
In our problem, the work function of cesium is
so, we can convert it into Joules by using the following proportion:
Answer:
Momentum is given by
p
=
m
v
. Impulse is the change of momentum,
I
=
Δ
p
and is also equal to force times time:
I
=
F
t
. Rearranging,
F
=
I

=
Δ

This is called the impulse:

=

. Impulse is also equal (check the units) to force times time:

We can rearrange this expression to make

The negative sign just means the force acting is in the opposite direction to the initial momentum.
(This will be the average force acting during the collision: collisions are chaotic so the force is unlikely to be constant.)
