In Einstein’s analysis, a photon striking the surface of a conductor is absorbed by an electron. Which statement describes the s

et of energy transfers that could occur?
A. the electron receives either all or none of the photon's energy
B. The electron may receive any fraction of the photon's energy, including all or none of it

Answer:

the correct answer is A

Explanation:

In an Einstein-type analysis, the photon is absorbed, it loses all its energy, therefore the electron must receive all or none of the energy of the incident photon. In a type of inelastic shock.

Let's analyze the different answers

A) true. In photon it is completely absorbed or passes without interaction

B) False. The photon must change energy, but in this case there is no absorption of the photon

C) False. In the insistent analyzes, the quantization of the electron in discrete states is not mentioned.

Therefore the correct answer is A

Determine the potential difference between the ends of the wire of resistance 5 Ω if 720 C passes through it per minute.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R = 5 ohms

Charge, q = 720 C

Time, t = 1 min = 60 s

We know that the charge flowing per unit charge is called current in the circuit. It is given by :

I = 12 A

Let V is the potential difference between the ends of a wire. It can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = IR

V = 60 Volts

So, the potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.

F=ma
where:
F - force
m - mass
a - acceleration 

We transform this formula to get a:
a= \frac{F}{m}
a=\frac{2}{10}\frac{N}{kg}=0.2\frac{m}{s^{2}}

A coil of Nichrome wire is 25.0 m long. The wire has a diameter of 0.400mm and is at 20.0°C. If it carries a current of 0.500 A,
yaroslaw [1]

The power delivered to the coil is 0.5 Watts

<h3>Resistivity of a material</h3>

The formula for calculating the power delivered to it is expressed according to the equation

Power = I²R

where

I is the current

R is the resistance

Given

Current = 0.500A

Determine the resistance using the resistivity formula

R = ρL/A

Substitute the given parameters

R = 10^-6*(25)/0.002²

R = 2ohms

Substitute

Power = I²R

Power = (0.5)²(2)

Power = 0.5watts

Hence the power delivered to the coil is 0.5 Watts

A person on earth would weigh a lot more on the sun due to increased ________________. gravity mass atoms energy
klemol [59]
A person on Earth would weigh a lot more on the sun due to increased gravity.

The sun is a massive object as compared to the sun. It is assumed that the gravity must be a lot greater as well. It is the strong gravitational pull of the sun that keeps our planets from drifting off into space. No matter where you are the mass of an object will remain constant, so will the energy and the number of atoms they hold. 

The answer is gravity.
