First of all the equation you need is this one
<span>E=<span>Ek</span>+ϕ</span> <span><span>Ek</span>=e<span>V0
</span></span>Please remember that the energy of a photon of wavelength lambda is given by <span>E=<span><span>hc</span>λ

</span></span>you can then calculate the maximum kinetic energy since you know the work function of the metal (1.8eV), and the wavelength of the photons (400 nm) (remembering to convert to SI units of joules for the work function). You can then find the maximum velocity of the electrons easy enough.You can obtain the stopping potential usign the next formula
Ek=eV0
<span>Because it is a stopping voltage, V_{0}  and remember it will have the units of volts.
</span>I think with that I can help you a lot.

The bohr shift on the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve is produced by changes in
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

THE BOHR SHIFT ON THE OXYGEN-HEMOGLOBIN DISSOCIATION CURVE IS PRODUCED BY CHANGES IN THE CONCENTRATION OF CARBON IV OXIDE.

Explanation:

The oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shows the relationship between the saturated hemoglobin concentration and oxygen. It shows how the blood hold on to and releases oxygen. The Bohr shift can occur as a result of changes in concentration of carbon iv oxide and other factors such as acidity or pH, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate, exercise, also temperature of the body. These factors contributes to the right or left shift on the curve. Carbon iv oxide prevents the binding of oxygen to the hemoglobin. The is because hemoglobin has the same binding site for both oxygen and carbon iv oxide. Carbon iv oxide increase also leads to a change in the pH of the blood through the formation of bicarbonate ion. Bicarbonate ion formation causes reduced acidity and therefore lead a shift in the dissociation curve for more of the carbon iv oxide to be excreted as hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen reduces. And when the concentration of carbon iv oxide is low in the plasma, acidity increases and this provides more affinity for oxygen by the hemoglobin.

How does a bimetallic strip work in a sinple alarm system​
tatiyna
The bimetallic strip in a fire alarm is made of two metals with different expansion rates bonded together to form one piece of metal. Typically, the low-expansion side is made of a nickel-iron alloy called Invar, while the high-expansion side is an alloy of copper or nickel. The strip is electrically energized with a low-voltage current. When the strip is heated by fire, the high-expansion side bends the strip toward an electrical contact. When the strip touches that contact, it completes a circuit that triggers the alarm to sound. The width of the gap between the contacts determines the temperature that will set off the alarm.

The center-seeking change in velocity of an object moving in a circle is:
NeTakaya

The center-seeking change in velocity of an object moving in a circle is the centripetal acceleration.

So, by Newton's laws, we know that an object moving with a given velocity will remain in constant motion with a constant velocity until we apply an acceleration.

So we define acceleration as the rate of change of the velocity, also remember that velocity is a vector (has magnitude and direction), so, if there is a change the direction of the velocity, we have an acceleration that causes that.

In circular motion, the velocity vector is always perpendicular to the radius of the circle, and it can only be possible if the velocity direction is changing constantly. This will happen because of something called centripetal acceleration.

This acceleration points radially inwards (to the center of the circle) so is also perpendicular to the velocity of the moving object, and this is what causes the constant change in the direction of the velocity of the moving object.

Just to give an example, if you have a string with a mass on one end, and with your hand, you rotate the mass (from the string), the tension of the string would be the centripetal acceleration.

If you want to learn more about circular motion, you can read:

Your lab instructor has asked you to measure a spring constant using a dynamic method—letting it oscillate—rather than a sta
yuradex [85]

Answer:

  k = 6,547 N / m

Explanation:

This laboratory experiment is a simple harmonic motion experiment, where the angular velocity of the oscillation is

         w = √ (k / m)

angular velocity and rel period are  related

         w = 2π / T

substitution

         T = 2π √(m / K)

in Experimental measurements give us the following data

  m (g)     A (cm)    t (s)   T (s)

  100        6.5         7.8    0.78

  150        5.5          9.8   0.98

   200      6.0        10.9    1.09

   250       3.5        12.4    1.24

we look for the period that is the time it takes to give a series of oscillations, the results are in the last column

        T = t / 10

To find the spring constant we linearize the equation

        T² = (4π²/K)    m

therefore we see that if we make a graph of T² against the mass, we obtain a line, whose slope is

         m ’= 4π² / k

where m’ is the slope

           k = 4π² / m'

the equation of the line of the attached graph is

       T² = 0.00603 m + 0.0183

therefore the slope

       m ’= 0.00603  s²/g

    we calculate

         k = 4 π² / 0.00603

          k = 6547 g / s²

we reduce the mass to the SI system

         k = 6547 g / s² (1kg / 1000 g)

         k = 6,547 kg / s² =

         k = 6,547 N / m

let's reduce the uniqueness

         [N / m] = [(kg m / s²) m] = [kg / s²]

Electric power companies measure energy consumption in kilowatt-hours, denoted kWh. One kilowatt-hour is the amount of energy tr
Natali [406]

The amount of energy used in the billing period is 5,400,000,000 joules.

One kWH is the amount of energy transferred in one hour, there 1 kWh is equal to

1 kWh=1*1000*(J/s)*3600 s

=3600000 J

Thus the amount of energy in joules consumed by the user for the billing period is =1500*3600000=5,400,000,000 J.

The amount of energy used in the billing period is 5,400,000,000 joules.
