Answer:

A) Emin = eV

B) Vo = (E_light - Φ) ÷ e

Explanation:

Energy of electron is the product of electron charge and the applied potential difference.

The energy of an electron in this electric field with potential difference V will be eV. Since this is the least energy that the electron must reach to break out, then the minimum energy required by this electron will be;

Emin = eV

The maximum stopping potential energy is eVo,

The energy of the electron due to the light is E_light.

If the minimum energy electron must posses is Φ, then the minimum energy electron must have to reach the detectors will be equal to the energy of the light minus the maximum stopping potential energy

Φ = E_light - eVo

Therefore,

eVo = E_light - Φ

Vo = (E_light - Φ) ÷ e

Lunna [17]

Answer:B. The superposition of waves from the primary source and reflected waves produced regions of constructive and destructive interference.

Explanation: Tsunami is described as several waves originating from a water body mainly an ocean caused by Large scale earth movements taking place under the sea.

Superimposition of wave is the movement of one wave on another,it can be constructive or destructive.

Constructive interference is a wave interference that take place causing the Crest of one wave to align with that of another wave leading to high amplitude.

Destructive interference is a wave interference that take place causing the Trouph of one wave to align with the crest of another wave leading to low amplitude wave.

An acrobatic airplane performs a loop at an airshow. The centripetal acceleration the plane experiences is 14.7 m/s2. If it tak

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

754.8 m

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$

where v is the speed of the airplane and r is the radius of the loop.

We can rewrite the speed of the airplane as the ratio between the length of the circumference ( $2 \pi r$ ) and the time taken:

$v=\frac{2 \pi r}{t}$

Substituting in the formula of the acceleration, we have

$a=\frac{(2 \pi)^2 r^2}{t^2 r}=\frac{(2 \pi)^2 r}{t^2}$

Re-arranging the formula and putting the numbers of the problem into it, we can find the radius of the loop, r:

$r=\frac{at^2}{(2 \pi)^2}=\frac{(14.7 m/s^2)(45.0 s)^2}{(2 \pi)^2}=754.8 m$

Give the atomic mass and atomic number of this atom.

Soloha48 [4]

I think it would be sodium.

Because the atomic mass is protons + neutrons, so I did 6 + 5 = 11
Then I looked on the periodic table for an element with the atomic mass of 11 and it was Na... Sodium.
