An experiment is designed to test what color of light will activate a photoelectric cell the best. The photocell is set in a cir

cuit that "clicks" in response to current. The faster the current, the more clicks per minute. In this experiment, the number of clicks in one minute is recorded for each color of light shining on the photocell. To change the color of light, a different color of cellophane is placed over the same flashlight and the flashlight is then located a specific distance from the photocell.
1. Which of the following was not kept constant?
the test for photocell activation
the color of the light after it has passed through the cellophane
the distance of the light from the photocell
the source of the original light

2. In the above experiment, which factor is the independent variable?
the photocell
the color of the light
the number of clicks
the original source of the light

3. Which of the following would be the best hypothesis for this experiment?
Photoelectric cells are affected by different wavelengths of light.
Red light will activate the photocell to the highest degree.
If photoelectric cells respond better to short wavelengths of light, the red light should activate it the least and blue the most.

Answer:

1. The color of the light after it has passed through the Cellophane

2. The color of the light

3. If photoelectric cells respond better to short wavelengths of light, the red light should activate it the least and the blue the most.

Explanation:

1. The color of the light changes depending on what color cellophane is put in front of the flashlight

2. The color of the light is the independent variable because it is the only part of the experiment that is being altered.

3. In the description they say the purpose of the experiment is to determine what color of light will have the largest affect on the photoelectric cell. Therefore, this matches up best. The one where is says Photoelectric cells are affected by different wavelengths of light doesn't mention which one is better just that they are affected.

What is the velocity of a 30-kg box with a kinetic energy of 6,000 J? 64 m/s
Nikolay [14]

Answer: 20 m/s

Explanation: To solve this problem we have to consider the expression of the kinetic energy given by:

Ekinetic=(1/2)*(m*v^2)

then E=0.5*30Kg*(20 m/s)^2=15*400=6000J

Write a short description of how the motion of the racers might change from the start of the race to the finish line
Ad libitum [116K]
The motion of the racers might change from the start because the pressure goes up so all the racer wants is to speed up and win, so when the racer first starts he or she is calm because he's not driving yet and when he or she is on his/hers way to he finish line he/she just wants to win and gets under pressure so he speeds up even more and drifts. Your welcome

How do you find the capacitance in this?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

parallel capacitances add directly

Series capacitances add by reciprocal of sum of reciprocals.

Ceq = [ C ] + [1 / (1/C + 1/C)] + [1 / (1/C + 1/C + 1/C)]

Ceq = [ C ] + [C / 2] + [C / 3]

Ceq = [ 6C/6 ] + [3C / 6] + [2C / 6]

Ceq = 11C/6

A rocket of mass 40000kg propelled by a force of 10^6N acquires a speed of 3000m/s determine the power expended
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

3×10⁹ W

Explanation:

Power = work / time

Power = force × distance / time

Power = force × velocity

P = Fv

P = (10⁶ N) (3000 m/s)

P = 3×10⁹ W
