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.

How far will a body move in 4 seconds if uniformly accelerated from rest at rate of 2m\sm\s​
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

16 m

Explanation:

For an object in uniformly accelerated motion (=with constant acceleration), the distance covered by the body can be found by using the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance covered

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For the body in this problem,

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

a=2 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Substituting t = 4 s, we find the distance covered:

s=0+\frac{1}{2}(2)(4)^2=16 m

A runner circles the track exactly 2 times for distance of 800m. it takes 4.0min. what is her average speed in m/s? what is her
Sindrei [870]

If the runner ends where she started, then her total displacement is \Delta x=0\,\mathrm m, which means her average velocity will be

\bar v=\dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{0\,\mathrm m}{4.0\,\mathrm{min}\cdot\frac{60\,\mathrm s}{1\,\mathrm{min}}=0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

The total distance she traversed, however, was \Delta d=800\,\mathrm m, which gives her an average speed of

\bar s=\dfrac{\Delta d}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{800\,\mathrm m}{4.0\,\mathrm{min}\cdot\frac{60\,\mathrm s}{1\,\mathrm{min}}=3.3\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

What is the resultant velocity
Rudik [331]

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>

<em><u>Resultant velocity is the vector sum of all given individual velocities. Velocity is a vector because it has both speed and direction. There are many ways to calculate vector sums, such as using a vector addition diagram, but using trigonometry to calculate vector components is usually more efficient.</u></em>
