The light intensity incident on a metallic surface with a work function of 3 eV produces photoelectrons with a maximum kinetic e

nergy of 2 eV. The frequency of the light is doubled. Determine the maximum kinetic energy (in eV).

Answer:

7ev

Explanation:

The Energy of an incident light is given as E = hf;

Where h is Planks constant

f is frequency

Also.

E = Eo + K.E

Where Eo is work function and K.E is kinetic energy.

Hence substituting the given values,

E = 3ev + 2ev = 5ev

The frequency of the incident wave if it's doubled the Energy would be doubled since E is proportional to f with other elements been constant.

Hence :E = 10ev

But K.E = E -Eo

= 10ev - 3ev = 7ev

Maximum Kinetic Energy is 7ev.

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
liraira [26]

For a wave:

v = fλ

v is the velocity, f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength.

Assuming the velocity of the wave doesn't change...

If you increase its frequency, its wavelength will shorten.

A 30 g bullet moving a horizontal velocity of 500 m/s comes to a stop 12 cm within a solid wall. (a) what is the change in the b
Sidana [21]
M = 30 g = 0.03 kg, the mass of the bullet
v = 500 m/s, the velocity of the bullet

By definition, the KE (kinetic energy) of the bullet is
KE = (1/2)*m*v²
      = 0.5*(0.03 kg)*(500 m/s)² = 3750 J
Because the bullet comes to rest, the change in mechanical energy is 3750 J.

The work done by the wall to stop the bullet in 12 cm is
W = (1/2)*(F N)*(0.12 m) = 0.06F J

If energy losses in the form of heat or sound waves are ignored, then
W = KE.
That is,
0.06F = 3750
F = 62500 N = 62.5 kN

Answer:
(a) 3750 J
(b) 62.5 kN
