Answer:

The correct option is;

C. Electrons can act as both waves and particles

Explanation:

The quantum theory theory developed by Max Planck established that effect of radiation on a blackbody can be explained by the fact that energy can exhibit physical characteristics which implies that energy can have both wave-like and physical characteristics

With Planck's law, light and electrons are known as having wave particle duality, that is they can act as both waves and particles.

The photoelectric effect tells us that __________.

Ivanshal [37]

<h2>hey </h2>

It describes the process by which surface electron's are emitted from a metal when light is shined on it.
And it tells us that light at a higher intensity must contain more quanta of energy, known as protons.

The wavelengths of light emitted by a firefly span the visible spectrum but have maximum intensity near 550 nm. A typical flash

Reil [10]

Answer:

$3.3\cdot 10^{15}$

Explanation:

First of all, let's calculate the energy of a single photon of wavelength

$\lambda=550 nm=5.5\cdot 10^{-7}m$

which is given by

$E_1 = \frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{5.5\cdot 10^{-7} m}=3.6\cdot 10^{-19} J$

The power of the flash is

$P=1.2 mW=0.0012 W$

and the time it lasts is

$t=100 ms=0.1 s$

so the total energy delivered in one flash is

$E=Pt=(0.0012 W)(0.1 s)=1.2\cdot 10^{-3}J$

This energy contains exactly N photons each of energy $E_1$ , so the number of photons emitted in one flash is

$N=\frac{E}{E_1}=\frac{1.2\cdot 10^{-3} W}{3.6\cdot 10^{-19}J}=3.3\cdot 10^{15}$

In the lab, you submerge 100 g of 40°C nails in 200 g of 20°C water. (The specific heat of iron is 0.12 cal/g # °C.) Equate the

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Final temperature of the mixture becomes

$T = 21.13^oC$

Explanation:

Here we know that heat given by the nail is equal to the heat absorbed by water

So here we know that heat to change the temperature is given as

$Q = ms\Delta T$

so by equating the heat we have

$m_{iron}s_{iron}\Delta T = m_{water}s_{water}\Delta T$

now we have

$100 (0.12) (40 - T) = 200 (1) (T - 20)$

$4.8 - 0.12 T = 2T - 40$

$44.8 = 2.12 T$

$T = 21.13^oC$

6. If a vehicle needs 5s to complete 15m. Find the mean speed of it?

Karolina [17]

Answer:

3m/s

Explanation:

Time=5s

Distance =15m

Speed=distance/time

Putting the values

Speed=15m/5s

Speed=3m/s is the answer

Hope it will help you. :)
