What is the longest wavelength of light that will emit electrons from a metal whose work function is 3.70 eV

Physics
1 answer:
SSSSS [86.1K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

h f = Wf + K

where the total energy available is h f, Wf is the work function or the work needed to remove the electron and K is the kinetic energy of the removed electron

If K = zero then hf = Wf

Wf = h f = h c / λ    or

λ = h c / Wf = 6.63E-34 * 3.0E8 / (3.7 * 1.6E-19)

λ = 6.63 * 3 / (3.7 * 1.6) E-7 = 3.36E-7

This would be 3360 angstroms or 336 millimicrons

Visible light = 400-700 millimicrons

Two capacitors are connected in series and the combination is charged to 120V. There's 90.0V across one capacitor, whose capacit
IgorC [24]

Answer:

0.84μF

Explanation:

Charge is same through both the capacitors since they are in series. Total voltage is the sum of the voltages of the individual capacitors.. So voltage across the 2nd capacitor is 120- 90 =30 V.

Charge across first capacitor is Q = C₁V₁ = 90 x0.28 = 25.2μC

Therefore capacitance of 2nd capacitor =

C₂ = Q÷V₂ = 25.2÷30 = 0.84 μF

A piece of wood that floats on water has a mass of 0.0175 kg. A lead weight is tied to the wood, and the apparent mass with the
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Specific gravity is 0.56

Explanation:

We know that

mass of water displaced by the wood is, m1( apparent mass when wood in air and lead is submerged in water) - m2(the apparent mass when wood and lead both are submerged in water)

= 0.0765 - 0.0452 = 0.0313 Kg

So the specific gravity of the wood is, = mass of wood / mass of water displaced by the wood

= 0.0175/0.0313

=0.56

tia_tia [17]
(130km) / (95km/h) = 1.37h first part of the trip 1.37h x 95 km/h = 130km change 3hr and 20 to 3.34. 3.34h -1.37h = 1.97h 1.97h x 65 km/h = 128km. I hope this will help you out.
