Answer:

0.46 eV

Explanation:

The maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons can be found using the formula

K.E = h(c)/λ - h(c)/λ(T), where

K.E = maximum kinetic energy needed

h(c) = Planck's constant, 6.626*10^-34

λ = Wavelength of the light, 250 nm

To start with, we convert our Planck's constant to nm and we have

h(c) = 1240 eV nm

Again, from the question, we already have h(c)/λ(T) given as 4.5 eV so all we need to do is substitute for it.

Plugging in all our values, we have

K.E = 1240/250 - 4.5

K.E = 4.96 - 4.5

K.E = 0.46 eV

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

in first case the torque is maximum.

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the product of force and the perpendicular distance.

τ = F x d x Sinθ

In case A: the angle between force vector and the distance vector is 90 so torque is

τ = F x d

In case B: the angle between force vector and the distance is 30°.

τ = F x d x Sin30

τ = 0.5 Fd

So the torque is maximum in first case.

Using the periodic table, choose the more reactive metal. Al or Mg
ziro4ka [17]
Aluminum, and magnesium are metals. For metals, reactivity decreases as you go from left to right across the periodic table. Atomic number of Al is 13 and of Mg is 12. Hence the least reactive of these two is therefore aluminum.

Magnesium is "HIGHLY FLAMMABLE" carefully take a small piece and hit it with a torch. If its Magnesium it will "Caution, very, quickly burn.
Aluminum will not react to simple flame, it will only melt with enough direct heat.


Magnesium
==========
Atomic Number: 12
Atomic Symbol: Mg
Atomic Weight: 24.305
Electron Configuration: 2-8-2


Aluminum
========
Atomic Number: 13
Atomic Symbol: Al
Atomic Weight: 26.9815
Electron Configuration: 2-8-3

Hope this helps some. Any questions please feel free to ask. Thank you
