0.6764*10^-10m

Explanation:

Using E= hc/wavelength

(4.14x10^-15)x(3.0x10^8)/(65x10^-12)=0.1911x10^5 eV=19.1 keV

So subtract the calculated energy from the given energy of scattered photons

9.11-0.75=18.36 keV

To find wavelength

Wavelength= hc/ E

[(4.14x 10^-15)x (3.0x10^8)]/(18.36*10^3) =0.6764^-10 m

The maximum wavelength an electromagnetic wave can have and still eject an electron from a copper surface is 264 nm .What is the
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

4.71 eV

Explanation:

For an electromagnetic wave with wavelength

\lambda=264 nm = 2.64\cdot 10^{-7} m

the energy of the photons in the wave is given by

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{2.64\cdot 10^{-7}m}=7.53\cdot 10^{-19} J

where h is the Planck constant and c the speed of light. Therefore, this is the minimum energy that a photon should have in order to extract a photoelectron from the copper surface.

The work function of a metal is the minimum energy required by the incident light in order to extract photoelectrons from the metal's surface. Therefore, the work function corresponds to the energy we found previously. By converting it into electronvolts, we find:

E=\frac{7.53\cdot 10^{-19} J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=4.71 eV

Which type of heat transfer can happen through empty space?
Scilla [17]
<h2>Answer: Heat transfer by radiation</h2>

Explanation:

There are three ways in which the thermal transfer (heat) occurs:

1. By Conduction, when the transmission is by the <u>direct contact.</u>  

2. By Convection, heat transfer<u> in fluids</u> (like water or the air, for example).  

3. By <u>Radiation</u>, by the electromagnetic waves (they can travel through any medium and in vacumm or empty space)

Since outter space is vacuum (sometimes called "empty"), energy cannot be transmitted by convection, nor conduction. It must be transmitted by electromagnetic waves that are able to travel with or without a medium.

Answer:

1 - third law

2 - second law

3 - first law

4 - third law

5 - second law

6 - first law

Explanation:

First law

In an inertial frame of reference, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force.

Second law

In an inertial frame of reference, the vector sum of the forces F on an object is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the acceleration, a of the object

F = ma.

Third law

When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.
