Answer:

1.11 V

Explanation:

Given that the Einstein photoelectric equation states that;

KE = E - Wo

E = energy of incident photon

Wo= work function of the metal

E = hf = 6.64 x 10-34 * 6 x 1014

E = 39.84 * 10^-20 J or 3.98  * 10^-19 J

KE = 3.98  * 10^-19 J - 2.2 x 10-19J

KE = 1.78 *  10^-19J

We convert this value of KE to electron volts

KE = 1.78 *  10^-19J/1.6 x 10-19C

KE = 1.11 eV

Hence; 1.11 V will be just sufficient to stop electrons emitted by the sodium photo-plate reaching the collector plate.

How does an atom of potassium-41 become a potassium ion with a +1 charge? 19 K 39.10
stiv31 [10]

It is very difficult for an atom to accept a proton. It can only be done under very special circumstances. So A and C are both incorrect. I don't see how D is possible. The atom does lose 1 electron, but how it gets 21 is think air.

The answer is B which is exactly what happens.

How does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?
Vesnalui [34]
Gravity lets all objects fall to the ground at the same speed, 9.8 m/s/s. If the force of gravity were stronger, such as 10 m/s/s, the rate of acceleration would be faster.

Lasers can be constructed that produce an extremely high intensity electromagnetic wave for a brief time—called pulsed lasers. T
alex41 [277]

Answer:

30643 J

Explanation:

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m

t = Time taken = 1 ns

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

E_0 = Maximum electric field strength = 1.52\times 10^{11}\ V/m

A = Area = 1\ mm^2

Magnitude of magnetic field is given by

B_0=\dfrac{E_0}{c}\\\Rightarrow B_0=\dfrac{1.52\times 10^{11}}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow B_0=506.67\ T

Intensity is given by

I=\dfrac{cB_0^2}{2\mu_0}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{3\times 10^8\times 506.67^2}{2\times 4\pi \times 10^{-7}}\\\Rightarrow I=3.0643\times 10^{19}\ W/m^2

Power, intensity and time have the relation

E=IAt\\\Rightarrow E=3.0643\times 10^{19}\times 1\times 10^{-6}\times 1\times 10^{-9}\\\Rightarrow E=30643\ J

The energy it delivers is 30643 J
