In two-dimensional motion, why is it important to resolve vectors into components?
In two-dimensional motion, why is it important to resolve vectors into components?
The vectors like velocity, displacement, and acceleration act along different directions in the two-dimensional motion. Resolving the vectors into the vertical and horizontal components allows the application of one-dimensional kinematic equations in each direction separately. It helps solve the pro

Consider a 20 W bulb emitting light of wavelength 5000 Å and shining on a metal surface kept at a distance 2 m. Assume that the metal surface has work function of 2 eV and that each atom on the metal surface can be treated as a circular disk of radius 1.5 Å.
(i) Estimate number of photons emitted by the bulb per second. [Assume no other losses]
(ii) Will there be photoelectric emission?
(iii) How much time would be required by the atomic disk to receive energy equal to work function (2 eV)?
(iv) How many photons would atomic disk receive within time duration calculated in (iii) above?
(v) Can you explain how photoelectric effect was observed instantaneously?

Explanation-number of photon emitted per second n=
(ii) E=hc = this enegy is greater than 2 so emission is possible
(iii) work function = =

(v) as the time of emission is 11.04s so
A particle A with a mass mA is moving with a velocity v and hits a particle B (mass mB) at rest (one dimensional motion). Find the change in the de-Broglie wavelength of the particle A. Treat the collision as elastic.
A particle A with a mass mA is moving with a velocity v and hits a particle B (mass mB) at rest (one dimensional motion). Find the change in the de-Broglie wavelength of the particle A. Treat the collision as elastic.
Explanation- according to law of conservation of momentum
S0 mAv+mb0=mAv1+mBv2
So mA(v-v1)= mBv2
according to law of conservation of kinetic energy
1/2mAv2=1/2mAv12+1/2mBv22
So mA(v2-v12)= mBv22
From above eqn we can say that v+v1=v2 or v=v2-v1
So v1= v and v2= v

Explanation- A= 10-4m2
So d= 10-3 and i= 100-4A
I= 100W/m2
10-4(10-3)=10-7m3
So volume Na atoms=23/0.97m3
Volume occupied by one Na atom=

What factors affect the de Broglie wavelength of a particle?
What factors affect the de Broglie wavelength of a particle?
The de Broglie wavelength depends on:
Planck's constant h (a universal constant),
velocity v of the particle
mass m of the particle.
Why regardless of the intensity of light, the photoelectric emission not occur below the threshold frequency?
Why regardless of the intensity of light, the photoelectric emission not occur below the threshold frequency?
Photons do not have enough energy ( )to overcome the work function (? ) of the material below the threshold frequency.The energy per photon remains too low to liberate electrons even if the light intensity is increased, so photoelectric emission cannot occur.
