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

Elan Coil [88]
Make the base of the building zero. Then the initial distance is 100m, final distance unknown x. Use gravity, time and initial velocity to solve for final distance.
x - 100 = (0)(5) +(1/2)(-9.81)(5^2)
x - 100 = 0 - 122.625
x = -122.625 + 100
x = -22.625 m below ground

what kind of weather would u assosiate with higher perssure system? How does the density, humidity and air motion compare to tha
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Low pressure systems typically arrive with storms and clouds. Air motion is usually upwards, as heated are is less dense and more buoyant than cooler air. A high pressure system is typically cooler than its counter-part, and skies are usually clear. Low pressure systems carry more water vapor due to rising hot air cooling and condensing.

An ac series circuit has an impedance of 60 Ohm and
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Power factor of the AC series circuit is cos\phi=0.5

Explanation:

It is given that,

Impedance of the AC series circuit, Z = 60 ohms

Resistance of the AC series circuit, R = 30 ohms

We need to find the power factor of the circuit. It is given by :

cos\phi=\dfrac{R}{Z}

cos\phi=\dfrac{30}{60}

cos\phi=\dfrac{1}{2}

cos\phi=0.5

So, the power factor of the ac series circuit is cos\phi=0.5. Hence, this is the required solution.

Newtons law of garvitation is known as universal law. Why​
xeze [42]

Answer:

It is called so because it is applicable on all bodies having mass, and the bodies will be governed by the same law, that is newton's law of gravitation. Thus, as it is applicable universally, it is called as universal law.
