The photeselestric effect is observed when light of a sufficiently high frequency is focused onto a polished metal surface, emit

ting photo electrons with a kinetic energy that is given by the difference betweent he photon enerzy and the work function of the metal Historically, this effect was very confusing. For most wave phenon tand ight was wel known to behave as a wave phenomenon·ore nerease the increasing the amplitude of the wave. in the case of light, this means increase- there are simple more electrons emitted increasing the ententisty. However, with increased intensity, the kinetic energy of the photoelections emited does not Albert Einstein (1879-1955) offered a solution to this perplecing problem in hi 190s paper!,-Ober einen die Erzeugung und Verwandlung des Lichtes betrefflenden heuristischen Gesichtspunkr.

Answer:

3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J

Explanation:

In order to convert the work function of cesium from electronvolts to Joules, we must use the following conversion factor:

1 eV = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J

In our problem, the work function of cesium is

E=2.1 eV

so, we can convert it into Joules by using the following proportion:

1 eV : 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J = 2.1 eV : x\\x=\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J)(2.1 eV)}{1 eV}=3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J

What changes a ball velocity
Grace [21]

Answer/Explanation: Speed and direction can change with time. When you throw a ball into the air, it leaves your hand at a certain speed. As the ball rises, it slows down. Then, as the ball falls back toward the ground, it speeds up again. When the ball hits the ground, its direction of motion changes and it bounces back up into the air.

Two cars A and B are moving with velocities 20 m/s and 15 m/s in the direction east and west respectively. If
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

<u>Distance</u><u> </u><u>between</u><u> </u><u>them</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>4</u><u>,</u><u>2</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>meters</u><u>.</u>

Explanation:

Consinder car A:

{ \bf{distance =  speed \times time }}

substitute:

distance = 20 \times (2 \times 60) \\  = 2400 \: m

Consider car B:

distance = 15 \times (2 \times 60) \\  = 1800 \: m

since these cars move in opposite directions, distance between them is their summation:

distance \: between = { \sum(distance \: of \: each \: car)} \\  = 2400 + 1800 \\  = 4200 \: m
