A laser emits a beam of light whose photons all have the same frequency. When the beam strikes the surface of a metal, photoelec

trons are ejected from the surface. What happens if the laser emits twice the number of photons per second

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>

If you separate vector B into its components. How many components will it have? Those components will be called?
Inessa [10]

The vector B will have two components and those components will be called resultant vectors.

<h3>What is a component vector?</h3>

A component vector is a unit vector that represents a given vector in a particular direction.

A vector can be represented in x - direction and y - direction.

  • x - component of the vector = Bcosθ
  • y - component of the vector = Bsinθ

Thus, the vector B will have two components and those components will be called resultant vectors.

A spherical asteroid of average density would have a mass of 8.7×1013kg if its radius were 2.0 km. 1. If you and your spacesuit
Law Incorporation [45]

1. 0.16 N

The weight of a man on the surface of asteroid is equal to the gravitational force exerted on the man:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M=8.7\cdot 10^{13}kg is the mass of the asteroid

m = 100 kg is the mass of the man

r = 2.0 km = 2000 m is the distance of the man from the centre of the asteroid

Substituting, we find

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11}m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})\frac{(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)(110 kg)}{(2000 m)^2}=0.16 N

2. 1.7 m/s

In order to stay in orbit just above the surface of the asteroid (so, at a distance r=2000 m from its centre), the gravitational force must be equal to the centripetal force

m\frac{v^2}{r}=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where v is the minimum speed required to stay in orbit.

Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)}{2000 m}}=1.7 m/s

Which example is NOT a part of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Electricity is NOT a part of electromagnetic spectrum.

An electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic radiations arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Electromagnetic waves  </h3>
  • Electromagnetic waves are types of waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
  • These waves are mostly transverse in nature, which means the direction of transmission is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of particles.
  • They include, light waves, radio waves, x-rays, infra-red, etc.
<h3>Electromagnetic spectrum </h3>
  • An electromagnetic wave shows electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.  
  • Electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic waves: Gamma rays, x-rays, Ultraviolet, Visible light, infra-red, microwaves, and radio waves.
  • The electromagnetic spectrum is divided into various sections based on wavelength, with gamma rays having the shortest wavelength and radio waves having the longest wavelength.
  • The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see using our naked eyes is called the visible light spectrum.
  • In order of frequency, the radio waves have the lowest frequency while gamma rays have the largest frequency.
<h3>General characteristics of electromagnetic waves  </h3>
  • They travel with the speed of light (3.0 x 10^8 m/s)
  • They possess energy that is given by; E =hf, where h is the plank’s constant and f is the frequency.
  • They are transverse in nature, and therefore, the wavelength is measured between successful crests or troughs.
  • They can travel through vacuum

Keywords: Electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves.
