Answer:

b) vary with the frequency of the light

Explanation:

The phone electric effect can be expressed as

K.E=(hv -W•)

Where K.E is the Kinectic energy

W• = work function of the metal

ν =frequency of the radiation

h = Planck's constat

Then, we can see that K.E is proportional linearly to "v" in the equation above.

Therefore, When light is directed on a metal surface, the kinetic energies of the photoelectrons vary with the frequency of the light

Explain the following behaviour of molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes but mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narr
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

The capillarity of water molecules is different from the mercury molecules.

What is capillarity ?

This is the tendency of a liquid substance to rise in a capillary tube.

Molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes because of the force of adhesion between the water molecules and the tube molecules is greater than the force of cohesion between the water molecules. This helps water to wet the tube and rise. While mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narrow tubes to level below the outside surface because the force of cohesion between the mercury molecules is greater than the force of adhesion between the mercury molecules and the tube molecules. Mercury does not wet.

A football player runs down a field with a speed of 8 m/s. How long will it take him to run 20m?
Shtirlitz [24]
To find the answer for this question, you simply need to divide 20 by 8, which is the speed he is traveling. 

20 / 8 = 2.5

The football player will run 20 yards in 2 1/2 seconds.
Hope that helped! =)

A 12 n cart is moving on a horizontal surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.20. what force of friction must be ove
jonny [76]

We must remember that the total net force equation at constant velocity is:

<span>F – Ff = 0</span>

of

F - µN = 0

Using Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:<span>

F = m a 

<span>Where,

F = net force acting on the body 
m = mass of the body 
a = acceleration of the body 

Since the cart is moving at a constant velocity, then acceleration is zero, hence the working equation simplifies to 

F = net Force = 0 

Therefore, 

F - µN = 0 

where 

µ = coefficient of friction = 0.20 
N = normal force acting on the cart = 12 N 

Therefore, 

F - 0.20(12) = 0 

<span>F = 2.4 N </span></span></span>
