Answer:

The correct answer is - 8.99N/C

Explanation:

$dE=k\dfrac{dq}{x^2}\\ dq=\lambda{dx}\\ \lambda=2nC/m\\ dq=2dxnC\\ dE=k\dfrac{2dx}{x^2}\\ E=2k\int_1^2\dfrac{dx}{x^2}\\ E=2k(\frac{-1}{x})_1^2=k\times10^{-9}N/C\\ E=8.99\times10^9\times10^{-9}N/C\\ E=8.99N/C\\dE=k$

What is the energy of a photon that has the same wavelength as an electron having a kinetic energy of 15 ev?

serg [7]

Answer: $6.268(10)^{-16}J$

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an electron $K_{e}$ is given by the following equation:

$K_{e}=\frac{(p_{e})^{2} }{2m_{e}}$ (1)

Where:

$K_{e}=15eV=2.403^{-18}J=2.403^{-18}\frac{kgm^{2}}{s^{2}}$

$p_{e}$ is the momentum of the electron

$m_{e}=9.11(10)^{-31}kg$ is the mass of the electron

From (1) we can find $p_{e}$ :

$p_{e}=\sqrt{2K_{e}m_{e}}$ (2)

$p_{e}=\sqrt{2(2.403^{-18}J)(9.11(10)^{-31}kg)}$

$p_{e}=2.091(10)^{-24}\frac{kgm}{s}$ (3)

Now, in order to find the wavelength of the electron $\lambda_{e}$ with this given kinetic energy (hence momentum), we will use the De Broglie wavelength equation:

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{h}{p_{e}}$ (4)

Where:

$h=6.626(10)^{-34}J.s=6.626(10)^{-34}\frac{m^{2}kg}{s}$ is the Planck constant

So, we will use the value of $p_{e}$ found in (3) for equation (4):

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{6.626(10)^{-34}J.s}{2.091(10)^{-24}\frac{kgm}{s}}$

$\lambda_{e}=3.168(10)^{-10}m$ (5)

We are told the wavelength of the photon $\lambda_{p}$ is the same as the wavelength of the electron:

$\lambda_{e}=\lambda_{p}=3.168(10)^{-10}m$ (6)

Therefore we will use this wavelength to find the energy of the photon $E_{p}$ using the following equation:

$E_{p}=\frac{hc}{lambda_{p}}$ (7)

Where $c=3(10)^{8}m/s$ is the spped of light in vacuum

$E_{p}=\frac{(6.626(10)^{-34}J.s)(3(10)^{8}m/s)}{3.168(10)^{-10}m}$

Finally:

$E_{p}=6.268(10)^{-16}J$

Scientists can use the location and depth of where a fossil is found to estimate the age of the fossil. To do this, they use

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

C the Law of Superposition

Explanation:

Basically the law of Superposition is applied in this regard. The law states that "the oldest layer is on the bottom and the youngest layer is on top".

When we find fossils at a particular depth we can relatively date a rock based on the strata we find them. A fossil in place in bottom beds will be older than the one in the topmost layer. Fossils also succeed one another in a definite pattern according to the principle of fossil and fauna succession.

The bending of light as it passes into a transparent material of different optical intensity is known as A. conversion. B. aberr

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

D. refraction

Explanation:

Refraction: Refraction is change in direction of light rays. Refraction occurs whenever light rays travels from a transparent medium to another transparent medium of different density. The abrupt change in direction at the surface of the surface of the two media is referred to as refraction.

Refraction occurs when light travels from air to glass or from air to liquid.

Laws Of Refraction:

(i) The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal, all at the point of incident lies in the same plane.

(ii) The ratio of the sine of the angle of incident to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media.

Thus the right option is D. refraction
