Answer:

the no. of ejected electrons per second will increase.

Explanation:

In photoelectric effect, when a light is incident on a metal surface it ejects some electrons from the metal surface. The energy of photon of light must be equal to or greater than the work function of that metal. All the extra energy above the work potential appears as the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons. So, greater he energy of photon greater will be the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons.

A single photon interacts with a single electron and ejects it only if its energy is greater than work function. So, the increase in no. of photons per second means an increase in the intensity of laser beam. And greater no. of photons, will interact with greater no. of electrons. So, <u>the no. of ejected electrons per second will increase.</u>

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

d A ball is rolling down an inclined plane.

Explanation:

When path length is equal to the displacement

then we can say that the motion of the object must be in straight line so that the distance and displacement must be same

SO here we can say

a A ball on the end of a string is moving in a vertical circle.

In circular path distance and displacement is not same

b A toy train is traveling around a circular track.

In circular path distance and displacement is not same

c A train travels 5 miles east before it stops. It then travels 2 miles west.

Net displacement is 3 miles East while distance is 7 miles

d A ball is rolling down an inclined plane.

Here its motion is in straight line so we can say that path length and displacement will be same

e A ball rises and falls after being thrown straight up from the earth's surface.

In this type of to and fro motion path length is not same as displacement

How long will it take the ball to reach the height of 35m?
Verizon [17]
Ahhh... hello! I’ve done a science experiment that has asked this sort of question. Not as easy as it sounds... I know. I’ll tell you what I learned from that experiment. The answer will depend on the materials the ball is made of and then also your drop length. After these two things are determined, you can get a pretty close time and measurement. I hope this information helps. Have a great night!
