What happens to an object's gravitational potential energy as it falls from some height?​

Physics
1 answer:
saveliy_v [14]3 years ago

Answer:

Decreases

Explanation:

As an object falls from some height, the gravitational potential energy of the object decreases.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

The potential energy is mathematically expressed as:

   Potential energy  = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

So, potential energy is directly proportional to mass and height.

The higher the mass and height, the more the potential energy.

The work function for magnesium is 3.70 ev. what is its cutoff frequency?
alexandr402 [8]

The cutoff frequency for magnesium is 8.93 x 10¹⁴ Hz.

<h3>What is cutoff frequency?</h3>

The work function is related to the frequency as

W0 = h x fo

where, fo = cutoff frequency and h is the Planck's constant

Given is the work function for magnesium is  3.70 eV.

fo = 3.7 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴

fo = 8.93 x 10¹⁴ Hz.

Thus, the cut off frequency is 8.93 x 10¹⁴ Hz.

Learn more about cutoff frequency.
