Answer:

The right solution is:

(a) 2.87 eV

(b) 1.4375 eV

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength,

= 433 nm

Potential difference,

= 1.43 V

Now,

(a)

The energy of photon will be:

E = \frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{433\times 10^{-9}}

  = 4.59\times 10^{-19} \ J

or,

  = \frac{4.59\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

  = 2.87 \ eV

(b)

As we know,

⇒ Vq=\frac{hc}{\lambda}-\Phi_0

By substituting the values, we get

⇒ 1.43\times 1.6\times 10^{19}=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{433\times 10^{-9}}-\Phi_0

⇒                       \Phi_0=2.3\times 10^{-19} \ J

or,

⇒                            =\frac{2.3\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

⇒                            =1.4375 \ eV

Answer:

The image distance is 17.56 cm

Explanation:

We have,

Height of light bulb is 3 cm.

The light bulb is placed at a distance of 50 cm. It means object distance is, u =-50 cm

Focal length of the lens, f = +13 cm

Let v is distance between image and the lens. Using lens formula :

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{13}+\dfrac{1}{(-50)}\\\\v=17.56\ cm

So, the image distance is 17.56 cm.

A wire carries a steady current of 2.20
alina1380 [7]
By definition we know that the force is the vector product of the vector of the current by the length with the magnetic field vector. The current in this case goes in a positive "Y" direction. If we assume that the magnetic field goes in the positive "K" direction, then the result will be in the positive "X" direction. Attached solution.
