Lithium was one of the metals studied by the American physicist Robert Millikan in his research on the photoelectric effect. Whe

n illuminated with blue light of frequency 6.64 x 10" Hz, the photoelectrons ejected from a lithium surface have a maximum kinetic energy of 0.332 eV. What is the threshold frequency for lithium? For this problem, let the value of Planck's constant, h, be 6.63 x 10J's

Answer:

 f = 7.9487 10¹³ Hz

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was correctly explained by Einstein assuming that the radiation is composed of photons, which behave like particles.

           hf = K + Ф

It indicates the frequency and the kinetic energy, let's look for the work function

          Ф = hf - K

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

          K = 0.332 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 eV) = 0.5312 10⁻⁻¹⁹ J

let's calculate

          Ф = 6.63 10⁻⁻³⁴  6.64 10¹¹ - 0.5312 10⁻¹⁹

          Ф = 4.40 10⁻²² - 0.5312 10⁻¹⁹

          Ф = 5.27 10⁻²⁰ J

for the minimum frequency that produces photoelectrons, the kinetic energy is zero

           hf = Ф  

           f = Ф / h

           f = 5.27 10⁻²⁰ / 6.63 10⁻³⁴

           f = 7.9487 10¹³ Hz

A shot is fired at an angle of 60 degree horizontal with Kinetic energy E. If air resistance is ignored, the K.E at the top of t
Lapatulllka [165]
I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith. 

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is    S cos(60)  =  0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is   S sin(60) = S√3/2  =  0.866 S .  (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change. 

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally. 

That's  E/4 .

QUESTION 7
ryzh [129]

Answer:

<em>The force required is 3,104 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

F = ma

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

On the other hand, the equations of the Kinematics describe the motion of the object by the equation:

v_f=v_o+at

Where:

vf is the final speed

vo is the initial speed

a is the acceleration

t is the time

Solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

We are given the initial speed as vo=20.4 m/s, the final speed as vf=0 (at rest), and the time taken to stop the car as t=7.4 s. The acceleration is:

\displaystyle a=\frac{0-20.4}{7.4}

a=-2.757\ m/s^2

The acceleration is negative because the car is braking (losing speed). Now compute the force exerted on the car of mass m=1,126 kg:

F = 1,126\ kg * 2.757\ m/s^2

F= 3,104 N

The force required is 3,104 N

The four tires of an automobile are inflated to a gauge pressure of 2.2 105 Pa. Each tire has an area of 0.023 m2 in contact wit
Stels [109]

Answer:

Force, F = 20240 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Pressure exerted by the four tires of an automobile, P=2.2\times 10^5\ Pa

Area of each tire, A=0.023\ m^2

Area of 4 tires,  A=0.092\ m^2

We know that the pressure exerted by an object is equal to the force per unit area. Its formula is given by :

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

F=P\times A

F=2.2\times 10^5\times 0.092

F = 20240 N

So, the weight of the automobile is 20240 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Whats the difference between speed and velocity of an object
ss7ja [257]
The difference between speed and velocity is that the speed is a scalar quantity which means that you can say that this object has a speed of x m/s but you don't have to define its direction
while the velocity is a vector quantity which means that you have to express the velocity by which it moves in x,y and z directions and its norm is the speed
