Alex, parked by the side of an east-west road, is watching car P, which is moving in a westerly direction. Barbara, driving east

at a speed 52 km/h, watches the same car. Take the easterly direction as positive. If Alex measures a speed of 78 km/h for car P, what velocity will Barbara measure?

Answer:

v_{PB} = 130\ km/h

Explanation:

Since, Alex is at rest. Therefore, the speed measured by him will be the absolute speed of car P. Therefore, taking easterly direction as positive:

Absolute\ Velocity\ of\ Car\ P = v_{P} = -78\ km/h

And the absolute velocity of Barbara's Car is given as:Absolute\ Velocity\ of\ Barbara's\ Car = v_{B} = 52\ km/h

Now, for the velocity of Car p with respect to the velocity of Barbara's Car can be given s follows:

Velocity\ of\ Car\ P\ measured\ by\ Barbara = v_{PB} = v_{B}-v_{P}\\\\v_{PB} = 52\ km/h-(-78\ km/h)

v_{PB} = 130\ km/h

An electron is ejected from the cathode by a photon with an energy slightly greater than the work function of the cathode. How w
Ksivusya [100]

It will be approximately equal.

<h3>How will the final kinetic energy change?</h3>

We can infer that all of the energy in the electron is Potential energy (PE) because the energy provided by the photon is hardly enough to outweigh the work function.

It will gain kinetic energy (KE) as it advances in the direction of the anode because it is moving through an electric field. All of the PE will have been transformed to KE by the time it reaches the anode.

According to the question

K = hf - W

W = Work function

The energy of photons is comparable. After conversion, there was only a little amount of KE remaining.

Therefore, PE (W) essentially equals KE (K).

It will about be equal.

Leto [7]

Answer:

1 mole of H2O is 18 grams (2 g H + 16 g Oxygen)

36 / 18 = 2

So 2 moles = 2 * 6.02E23 = 12.04E23 = 1.204E24
