Which statement about the photoelectric effect is true?

Physics
1 answer:
Ivenika [448]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: A

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was first proposed by Einstein. He claimed that when a light wave comes in contact with an electron, it has the ability to strip that electron from its atom. It depends on how much energy the light wave is carrying, and what type of atom the light is hitting. We use the photoelectric effect in garage motion sensors.

Light of wavelength 425.0 nm in air falls at normal incidence on an oil film that is 850.0 nm thick. The oil is floating on a wa
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

in oil film        λ = 303.57 10⁻⁹ m

in the water film    λ = 319.55 10⁻⁹ m

Explanation:

When electromagnetic radiation reaches a material, its propagation is by a process that we call absorption and reflection,

when light reaches a surface it has a mass much greater than the mass of the photons (m = 0), therefore there is an elastic collision where the frequency does not change, due to the speed of light in the material medium changes, therefore the only possibility is that the wavelength in the material changes, to maintain the relationship

             v = λ f

in the void we have

             c = λ₀ f

we divide the two expression

            c / v = λ₀ / λ

the refractive index is

             

              n = c / v

              n = λ₀ /λ

              λ = λ₀ / n

let's calculate

in oil film

            λ = 425 10⁻⁹ / 1.40

            λ = 303.57 10⁻⁹ m

in the water film

            λ = 425 10⁻⁹ / 1.33

            λ = 319.55 10⁻⁹

those wavelengths are in the ultraviolet
