Answer:
The speed of the electron is 1.371 x 10⁶ m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
wavelength of the ultraviolet light beam, λ = 130 nm = 130 x 10⁻⁹ m
the work function of the molybdenum surface, W₀ = 4.2 eV = 6.728 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
The energy of the incident light is given by;
E = hf
where;
h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s
f = c / λ
Photo electric effect equation is given by;
E = W₀ + K.E
Where;
K.E is the kinetic energy of the emitted electron
K.E = E - W₀
K.E = 15.291 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 6.728 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
K.E = 8.563 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Kinetic energy of the emitted electron is given by;
K.E = ¹/₂mv²
where;
m is mass of the electron = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg
v is the speed of the electron
Therefore, the speed of the electron is 1.371 x 10⁶ m/s.
Answer:
The average velocity is 0.15 m/s
Explanation:
Use the definition of average velocity as the distance traveled divided the time it took.
Since the movement was on the plane from the origin (0, 0) to the point (-30, 20) corresponding to 30 m west and 20 m north, we calculate the distance using the distance between two points on the plane:
Then the magnitude of the average velocity can be estimated via the quotient between distance divided time, but since the units required are meters per second, we first convert the four minute time into seconds: 4 * 60 = 240 seconds.
Then the average velocity becomes:
