What is the maximum wavelength of incident light for which photoelectrons will be released from gallium

Physics
1 answer:
guajiro [1.7K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em>292 nm</em>

Explanation:

The work function of gallium ∅ = 94.25 eV = 6.81 x 10^-19 J

at maximum wavelength, the energy of the photons is equal to its work function

Energy of the electron = hf

but hf = hc/λ

where h is the planck's constant = 6.63 × 10-34 m^2 kg/s

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

λ is the wavelength that this occurs, which is the maximum wavelength

Equating, we have

hc/λ =  ∅

substituting, we have

(6.63 × 10-34 x 3 x 10^8)/λ = 6.81 x 10^-19

(1.989 x 10^-25)/(6.81 x 10^-19) = λ

λ = 292.07 x 10^-9 = <em>292 nm</em>

Question 8 of 16
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

PE = mgh where m is the mass, g is gravity, and h is the height from which the object can potentially fall. We are given enough info here to solve for h. Filling in:

42 = 1.8(9.8)h and

h=\frac{42}{(1.8)(9.8)} and rounding to 2 sig fig's as we need:

h = 2.4 m, choice D

A ball is thrown upward from the ground with an initial speed of 25 m/s; at the same instant, another ball is dropped from a bui
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

t = o.6 s

Explanation:

Let ball thrown from below be A and ball dropped from above be B.

A and B meet when they both are same level above the ground. Then let A moved up a distance d and B dropped a distance h. Then you know

d + h = 15 m  ---------------(1)

Now apply s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at²

To A upwards,

d = 25t - \frac{1}{2}gt²  -----------------(2)

To B downwards,

h = 0 + \frac{1}{2}gt² ----------------(3)

(1) = (2) + (3) ⇒ 15 = 25t

                         t = 0.6 s

An insulated piston–cylinder device contains 5 l of saturated liquid water at a constant pressure of 150 kpa. an electric resist
Semmy [17]
At the initial state: v1 = vf = 0.001053 m 3 /kg, h1 = hf = 467.11 kJ/kg, and s1 = sf = 1.4336 kJ/kgK.
 The mass of the water is: m = V/v1 = 0.005/0.001053 = 4.7483 kg.
 To find the final state, we will use the First Law:
 Q12 = m(h2 - h1) for closed system undergoing a constant pressure process.
 h2 = 1Q2/m + h1 = 2200/4.7483 + 467.11 = 930.43 kJ/kg.
 At P2 = P1 = 150 kPa, this is a saturated mixture.
 hf = 467.11 kJ/kg, hfg = 2226.5 kJ/kg, sf = 1.4336 kJ/kgK, and sfg = 5.7897  kJ/kgK
 s2 = sf + sfg (h2 – hf )/hfg = 1.4336 + 5.7897(930.43 – 467.11)/2226.5 =   2.6384 kJ/kgK.
 The entropy change of water is:
 Delta Ssys= m(s2 – s1) = 4.7483(2.6384 – 1.4336) = 5.72 kJ/K.

A car has the velocity of 2.35 after 4.67 it's velocity is 9.89 what is the average acceleration
kiruha [24]
Average acceleration  =  (change in speed) / (time for the change) .
  
Change in speed = (ending speed) - (beginning speed)

                       =  (9.89 miles/hour) - (2.35 yards/second)  = 26,839.2 ft/hr

Acceleration  =  (26,839.2 ft/hr) / (4.67 days)  =  2,873.58 inch/hour²
