Answer:

2.46 eV

Explanation:

It is given that,

The energy of light that fall on the metal = 3.56 eV

The stopping potential of the metal = 1.1 V

We need to find the work function of the metal. It is given by the relation as follows :

W = E-KE ...(1)

Where KE is the kinetic energy of the ejected electron and it is given by :

KE = V×e

= 1.1 eV

Put all the values in formula (1)

W = 3.56 eV - 1.1 eV

= 2.46 eV

Hence, the work function of the metal is 2.46 eV. Hence, the correct option is (c).

A 60 kg man jumps down from a 0.8 m table. What is the speed when he
Rom4ik [11]

Answer: Speed = 4 m/s

Explanation:

The parameters given are

Mass M = 60 kg

Height h = 0.8 m

Acceleration due to gravity g= 10 m/s2

Before the man jumps, he will be experiencing potential energy at the top of the table.

P.E = mgh

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

P.E = 60 × 9.8 × 0.8

P.E = 470.4 J

As he jumped from the table and hit the ground, the whole P.E will be converted to kinetic energy according to conservative of energy.

When hitting the ground,

K.E = P.E

Where K.E = 1/2mv^2

Substitute m and 470.4 into the formula

470.4 = 1/2 × 60 × V^2

V^2 = 470.4/30

V^2 = 15.68

V = square root (15.68)

V = 3.959 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the man when hitting the ground is approximately 4 m/s

A rope passes over a fixed sheave with both ends hanging straight down. The coefficient of friction between the rope and sheave
Oliga [24]

Answer:3.51

Explanation:

Given

Coefficient of Friction \mu =0.4

Consider a small element at an angle \theta having an angle of d\theta

Normal Force=T\times \frac{d\theta }{2}+(T+dT)\cdot \frac{d\theta }{2}

N=T\cdot d\theta

Friction f=\mu \times Normal\ Reaction

f=\mu \cdot N

and T+dT-T=f=\mu Td\theta

dT=\mu Td\theta

\frac{dT}{T}=\mu d\theta

\int_{T_2}^{T_1}\frac{dT}{T}=\int_{0}^{\pi }\mu d\theta

\frac{T_2}{T_1}=e^{\mu \pi}

\frac{T_2}{T_1}=e^{0.4\times \pi }

\frac{T_2}{T_1}==e^{1.256}

\frac{T_2}{T_1}=3.51
