Answer:

Particle

Explanation:

To understand photoelectric effect the physicists has to view light as a particle and not wave. The wave nature of the light could not explain the phenomenon of photoelectric effect.

Photoelectric effect is emission of electrons from a material when electromagnetic radiation(Light) is incident on it. These emitted electrons are called photoelectrons.

The explain this effect Einstein proposed that beam of light is can not be a wave propagating through space, but a swarm of discrete energy packets, called as photons.

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The appropriate response is " $\tau=\frac{1}{6} PgLh^3$ ". A further explanation is described below.

Explanation:

The torque ( $\tau$ ) produced by the force on the dam will be:

⇒ $d \tau=XdF$

On applying integration both sides, we get

⇒ $\tau = \int_{0}^{a}x pgL(h-x)dx$

⇒ $= pgL\int_{0}^{h}(h-x)dx$

⇒ $=pgL[\frac{h^3}{2} -\frac{h^3}{3} ]$

⇒ $=\frac{1}{6} PgLh^3$

An initially stationary object experiences an acceleration of 6 m/s2 for a time of 15 s. How far will it travel during that time

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

s = s₀ + v₀t + ½at²

s = 0 + 0(15) + ½(6)(15²)

s = 675 m

Not sure what the free fall acceleration is needed for, but if the object is dropped from a high enough point, it will travel in 15 seconds

s = ½10(15²) = 2250 m if air resistance is ignored
