The work function for tungsten metal is 4.52eV a. What is the cutoff (threshold) wavelength for tungsten? b. What is the maximum
Tanya [424]

Answer: a) 274.34 nm; b) 1.74 eV c) 1.74 V

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to consider the energy balance for the photoelectric effect on tungsten:

h*ν = Ek+W ; where h is the Planck constant, ek the kinetic energy of electrons and W the work funcion of the metal catode.

In order to calculate the cutoff wavelength we have to consider that Ek=0

in this case  h*ν=W

(h*c)/λ=4.52 eV

λ= (h*c)/4.52 eV

λ= (1240 eV*nm)/(4.52 eV)=274.34 nm

From this h*ν = Ek+W;  we can calculate the kinetic energy for a radiation wavelength of 198 nm

then we have

(h*c)/(λ)-W= Ek

Ek=(1240 eV*nm)/(198 nm)-4.52 eV=1.74 eV

Finally, if we want to stop these electrons we have to applied a stop potental equal to 1.74 V . At this potential the photo-current drop to zero. This potential is lower to the catode, so this  acts to slow down the ejected electrons from the catode.

A ball is thrown straight up at time t=0 with an initial speed of 19m/s. Take the point of release to be y0=0 and upwards to be
Wittaler [7]
First we write the corresponding kinematics equations:
 a = -g
 v = -g * t + vo
 y = -g * ((t ^ 2) / 2) + vo * t + yo
 Substituting the values:
 y = - (9.81) * (((0.50) ^ 2) / 2) + (19) * (0.50) + (0) = 8.27m
 answer:
 the displacement at the time of 0.50s is 8.27m

1. Which of the following transformations is an example of a β−-decay?
KatRina [158]

Answer:

1. C: 31/14 Si becomes 31/15 because a nuetron

2. A: 238  92U because the very long half-life means a very small rate of decay

3. D: Charge conservation is not satisfied

4. B: of the four nuclear decay processes only the α-decay changes the baryon number and does so in increments of four
