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

leonid [27]

155Ω

Explanation:

R = R ref ( 1 + ∝ ( T - Tref)  

where R = conduction resistance at temperature T

R ref = conductor resistance at reference temperature

∝ = temperature coefficient of resistance for conductor

T = conduction temperature in degrees Celsius

T ref = reference temperature that ∝ is specified at for the conductor material

T = 600 k - 273 k = 327 °C

Tref = 300 - 273 K = 27 °C

R = 50 Ω ( 1 + 0.007 ( 327 - 27) )

R = 155Ω
