When a mirror is rotated . . .
-- The incident ray doesn't turn. It's just the line from the source to the mirror.
It would be there, in the same place, even if there was no mirror.
-- The normal turns. It's the line perpendicular to the mirror, so it must turn
with the mirror.
-- Since the normal tuns and the incident ray doesn't, the angle between them
must change. And since the angle of the reflected ray is equal to the angle of
the incident ray, the reflected ray must also turn.
Answer:
λ = 2.7608 x 10⁻⁷ m = 276.08 nm
Explanation:
The work function of a metallic surface is the minimum amount of photon energy required to release the photo-electrons from the surface of metal. The work function is given by the following formula:
Work Function = hc/λ
where,
Work Function = (4.5 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV) = 7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s
c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
λ = longest wavelength capable of releasing electron.
Therefore,
7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/λ
λ = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)
<u>λ = 2.7608 x 10⁻⁷ m = 276.08 nm</u>
Answer:
10.6cm
Explanation:
We are given 5.3cm below the starting point (spring extension).
Therefore, to find static vertical equilibrium, we use the equation:
kx = mg
Where:
k = spring constant =
=mg/5.3 kg/s²
We are told the object was dropped from rest.
Therefore:
loss in potential energy = gain in spring p.e
Let's use the expression:
mgx = ½kx²
We are asked to find the stretch at maximum elongation x.
To find x, we make x subject of the formula.
Therefore, we have:
x = 2mg/k (after rearranging the equation above)
x = (2mg) / (mg/5.3)
x = 10.6cm
Imma go with A.
