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.

A thin walled spherical shell is rolling on a surface. What
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

=\frac{1/3}{5/6} = 0.4

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of given shell= \frac{2}{3} MR^2

where

M represent sphere mass

R -sphere radius

we know linear speed is given as v = r\omega

translational K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} m(r\omega)^2

rotational K.E = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2 = \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{3} MR^2 \omega^2

total kinetic energy will be

K.E = \frac{1}{2} m(r\omega)^2 + \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{3} MR^2 \omega^2

K.E =\frac{5}{6} MR^2 \omega^2

fraction of rotaional to total K.E

=\frac{1/3}{5/6} = 0.4

A boy is holding a ball 1 m from the ground with a force of 20 N. He holds it still for 60seconds. How much power in watts is be
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Power = 0.33 Watts

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 1m

Force = 20N

First of all, we would solve for the work done by the boy.

Workdone = force * distance

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Workdone = 20*1 = 20J

Now to find power;

Power = workdone/time

Power = 20/60

Power = 0.33 Watts.

A boxed 12.0 computer monitor is dragged by friction 7.50 up along the moving surface of a conveyor belt inclined at an angle of
sasho [114]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

Below is the solution:

W done by Normal = 0. (make the incline flat, Normal force goes directly up: no work done) 
<span>W done by gravity = w*displacement = (11kg*9.8) * 7.5sin(35) = -463J </span>
<span>W done by friction is the opposite of the work done by weight because the object is not moving. Therefore W done by friction = 463J</span>

Will an electromagnet be obtained if steel is placed inside the solenoid?​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:A solenoid is a simple electromagnetic device consisting of a coiled electric wire, wrapped in a 3D circular pattern. When electric current is passed through the wire, the solenoid acts like a magnet with N and S poles at the ends of the coil.

When a ferromagnetic material rod is permanently placed inside the solenoid, the metal greatly increases the magnetic effect and becomes a permanent electromagnet. Moreover, it can also be used as an electrical switch by drawing in or pushing out a ferromagnetic material like an iron rod. Depending on the directions of the rod and the electrical current the switching action takes place.

Given figure  represents the solenoid as electromagnet and the switching action.

Which temperature scale has the highest value for the boiling point of water?
drek231 [11]

Answer: The correct answer is kelvin.

Explanation:

The expression for the conversion of degree Celsius to Kelvin is as follows:

K= 273 + degree Celsius

The expression for the conversion of degree Celsius to Fahrenheit is as follows:

F=(Degree Celsius\times \frac{9}{5})+ 32

The freezing point of water on Celsius degree is zero degree Celsius. The freezing point on kelvin scale is 273.15 K.

The boiling point of water on Celsius degree is 100 degree Celsius. The boiling point on kelvin scale is 373.15 K.  The boiling point on Fahrenheit scale is 373.15 K.

Therefore, Kelvin scale has the highest value for the boiling point of water.
