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
Physics

3 0

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>

Joe the house painter stands on a uniform oak board weighing 600 N and held up by vertical ropes at each end. Joe has been dieti
Mamont248 [21]

Answer

given,

weight of the oak board = 600 N

Weight of Joe = 844 N

length of board = 4 m

Joe is standing at 1 m from left side

vertical wire is supporting at the end.

Assuming the system is in equilibrium

T₁ and T₂ be the tension at the ends of the wire

equating all the vertical force

T₁ + T₂ = 600 + 844

 T₁ + T₂ = 1444...........(1)

taking moment about T₂

 T₁ x 4 - 844 x 3 - 600 x 2 = 0

 T₁ x 4 = 3732

 T₁ = 933 N

from equation (1)

 T₂ = 1444 - 933

 T₂ = 511 N

What is the magnitude of the electric force between a proton and an electron when they are at a distance of 4.09 angstrom from e
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

F=1.38*10^{-9}N

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electric force between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

Here k is the Coulomb constant. In this case, we have q_1=-e, q_2=e and d=4.09*10^-10m. Replacing the values:

F=\frac{8.99*10^{9}\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}(-1.6*10^{-19}C)(1.6*10^{-19}C)}{(4.09*10^{-10})^2}\\F=-1.38*10^{-9}N

The negative sign indicates that it is an attractive force. So, the magnitude of the electric force is:

F=1.38*10^{-9}N

State the law of conservation of linear momentum using Newton's third law of deduce this ​
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Derivation of Conservation of Momentum

Applying Newton's third law, these two impulsive forces are equal and opposite i.e. is equal to the change in momentum of the first object. is equal to the change in momentum of the second object. This relation suggests that momentum is conserved during the collision.

Hope it helps!!!
