Answer:
W = 3.73 eV
Explanation:
Given data:
wavelength of photons 240 nm
kinetic energy 1.45 eV
B y using photoelectric equation
Kinetic Energy = Photon Energy - work friction
= 5.179 eV
= 5.18 eV
= (5.18 - 1.45) eV
W = 3.73 eV
Efficiency = 45J/120J = 0.375
Or
0.375 * 100% = 37.5 %
Answer:
Sputnik I.
Explanation:
The Soviet Union (former) launched the first artificial earth satellite called Sputnik I on October 4, 1957.
It had a diameter of 58 cm and it weighed 83.6 kg. It had an orbital period of 5880 seconds around the earth. It orbited the 11 weeks (officially 3 weeks but then, its battery died and it orbited for 8 weeks before falling back into the earth's atmosphere).
