Answer:

(d) 2840 A

Explanation:

Threshold frequency can be be calculated using expresion below

(λ)= hc/ Φ

(λ) sodium/ (λ)tungsten = Φtungsten/ Φsodium

But (λ) sodium is given as 5460 A,

Φsodium = 2.3 eV

Φtungsten= 4.4 eV

If we substitute the values we can find

(λ)tungsten.

(λ)tungsten= [(λ) sodium × Φsodium]/ Φtungsten

=( 5460× 2.3)/4.4

= 2854A

Hence, threshold wavelength of tungsten is 2854A

a steel ball bearing is released from a height hhh and rebounds after hitting a steel plate to a height hhh. what is true about
lbvjy [14]

In collision of the steel ball and the steel plate, the collision is an inelastic collision and there is loss in the kinetic energy.

<h3>What are collisions?</h3>

Collisions occur when two objects that are moving in the same directions or in different direction meet each other and collide.

There are two types of collisions:

  • elastic collision - the kinetic energy is conserved
  • inelastic collision - there is a loss in kinetic energy

In the collision of the steel ball and the steel plate, there is loss in the kinetic energy of the steel ball which is converted to sound energy.

In conclusion, the collision of the steel and steel plate is an inelastic collision.
