What is the kinetic energy of a an 80kg football player running at 8 m/s?
Ugo [173]
In the question it is already given that the football player is 80 kg.
Then the mass of the football player = 80 kg
Velocity at which the football player is running = 8 m/s
<span>Kinetic Energy = 0.5 • mass • square of velocity
Now we have to put the known data in this equation to find the actual velocity of the footballer.
</span> <span></span>So
Kinetic Energy of the footballer = 0.5 * 80 * (8 * 8)
                                                 = 0.5 * 80 * 64
                                                 = 2560
So the Kinetic energy of the footballer is 2560 joules

The following table lists the work functions of a few common metals, measured in electron volts. Metal Φ(eV) Cesium 1.9 Potassiu
Citrus2011 [14]

A. Lithium

The equation for the photoelectric effect is:

E=\phi + K

where

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda} is the energy of the incident light, with h being the Planck constant, c being the speed of light, and \lambda being the wavelength

\phi is the work function of the metal (the minimum energy needed to extract one photoelectron from the surface of the metal)

K is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectron

In this problem, we have

\lambda=190 nm=1.9\cdot 10^{-7}m, so the energy of the incident light is

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{1.9\cdot 10^{-7} m}=1.05\cdot 10^{-18}J

Converting in electronvolts,

E=\frac{1.05\cdot 10^{-18}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=6.5 eV

Since the electrons are emitted from the surface with a maximum kinetic energy of

K = 4.0 eV

The work function of this metal is

\phi = E-K=6.5 eV-4.0 eV=2.5 eV

So, the metal is Lithium.

B. cesium, potassium, sodium

The wavelength of green light is

\lambda=510 nm=5.1\cdot 10^{-7} m

So its energy is

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{5.1\cdot 10^{-7} m}=3.9\cdot 10^{-19}J

Converting in electronvolts,

E=\frac{3.9\cdot 10^{-19}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=2.4 eV

So, all the metals that have work function smaller than this value will be able to emit photoelectrons, so:

Cesium

Potassium

Sodium

C. 4.9 eV

In this case, we have

- Copper work function: \phi = 4.5 eV

- Maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons: K = 2.7 eV

So, the energy of the incident light is

E=\phi+K=4.5 eV+2.7 eV=7.2 eV

Then the copper is replaced with sodium, which has work function of

\phi = 2.3 eV

So, if the same light shine on sodium, then the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons will be

K=E-\phi = 7.2 eV-2.3 eV=4.9 eV

How does the force affect the rocks during collisions? *
Jet001 [13]

In a collision, there is a force on both objects that causes an acceleration of both objects; the forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. For collisions between equal-mass objects, each object experiences the same acceleration.

A child looks at his reflection in a spherical Christmas tree ornament 8.0 cm in diameter in season that the image of his face i
malfutka [58]

From the information given,

diameter of ornament = 8

radius = diameter/2 = 8/2

radius of curvature, r = 4

Recall,

focal length, f = radius of curvature/2 = 4/2

f = 2

Recall,

magnification = image d
