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
C. The electron may receive only certain quantized amounts 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

You continue moving forward, and you HOPE that some of the other
people in your Physics class are seeing this, because it's a great
demonstration of Newton's First Law of Motion.

What could contribute to an inaccurate vital sign reading?
amid [387]
<span>Lack of training in getting the vital sign or worst, not knowing the right way to take the vital sign could contribute to an inaccurate vital sign reading. For example, if you are tasked to get the respiration of the patient, the rule is to count inhale and exhale as one. But if you were not able to know this rule, and you counted inhale as one and exhale as another, this could impair the vital reading. </span>

How is the behavior of waves affected by a medium?
Vlad1618 [11]
They are slowed down.

even air is a medium and will slow down waves (slightly) compared to a vacuum/ space

if the wave hits the medium at an angle it can be 'bent' (refracted) like light through a glass prism

The mass of the Earth is 6 × 1024 kg, the mass of the Moon is 7 × 1022 kg, and the center-to-center distance is 4 × 108 m. How f
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The center of mass of the Earth–Moon system is 4.613 × 10⁶ m from center of the Earth.

Explanation:

Let the reference point be the center of the Earth

X_{Cm = \frac{M_eX_e +M_mX_m}{M_e+M_m}

Where;

Xcm is the distance from center of the Earth =?

Me is the mass of the Earth = 6 × 10²⁴ kg

Xe is the center mass of the Earth = 0

Mm is the mass of the moon = 7 × 10²² kg

Xm is the center mass of the moon =  4 × 10⁸ m

X_{Cm = \frac{M_eX_e +M_mX_m}{M_e+M_m} =  \frac{M_e(0) +M_mX_m}{M_e+M_m} = \frac{ M_mX_m}{M_e+M_m}}\\\\X_C_m = \frac{7 X 10^{22}*4X10^8}{6X10^{24}+7X10^{22}} =\frac{28 X10^{30}}{607X10^{22}}\\\\  X_C_m = 4.613 X10^6 m

Therefore, the center of mass of the Earth–Moon system is 4.613 × 10⁶ m from center of the Earth.
