Molybdenum metal requires a photon with a minimum frequency of 1.09x1015s-1before it can emit an electron via the photoelectric effect. a) What is the minimum energy needed to eject an electron?

b)What wavelength of radiation (in nm) will provide a photon of this energy?

c)How many electrons can be freed by a burst of radiation whose total energy is 1.00 μJ, assuming one photon causes one electron to be freed? (μ= micro = 10-6)

d) If molybdenum is irradiated with light of 122nm, what is the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons?

a. The energy of molybdenum to eject electron has been $\rm \bold{7.22\;\times\;10^{-19}}\;J$ .

b. The wavelength of the radiation has been 275 nm.

c. The number of electrons present in $\rm 1\;\mu J$ energy has been $\rm \bold{1.38\;\times\;10^1^2}$ .

d. The kinetic energy of the emitted electrons as been $\rm \bold{9.1\;\times\;10^-^1^9\;J}$ .

The metal emits the energy when it returns from the excited state to ground state.

a. The energy (E) to eject electron has been given by:

$E=h\nu$

Where, the value of constant, $h=6.626\;\times\;10^{-34}\;\rm J.s$

The value of frequency has been given, $\nu=\rm 1.09\;\times\;10^{15}\;s^{-1}$

Substituting the values for energy:

$E=6.626\;\times\;10^{-34}\;\times\;1.09\;\times\;10^{15} \rm J\\\textit E=7.22\;\times\;10^{-19}\;J$

The energy of molybdenum to eject electron has been $\rm \bold{7.22\;\times\;10^{-19}}\;J$ .

b. The wavelength ( $\lambda$ ) of the radiation has been given by:

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{\nu}$

Where, the speed of light, $c=3\;\times\;\rm m/s$

The frequency has been given as, $\nu=1.09\;\times\;10^{15}\;\rm s^-^1$ .

Substituting the values for wavelength:

$\lambda=\dfrac{3\;\times\;10^8}{1.09\;\times\;10^{15}}\;\rm m\\ \lambda=2.75\;\times\;10^-^7\;m\\\lambda=275\;nm$

The wavelength of the radiation has been 275 nm.

c. The electrons ( e^- ) burst out can be given as:

$e^-=\dfrac{E}{E'}$

Where, the energy of radiations, $E=1\;\times\;10^{-6}\;\rm J$

The energy of each electron has been calculated as, $E'=7.22\;\times\;10^{-19}\;\rm J$

Substituting the values for number of electrons:

$e^-=\dfrac{1\;\times\;10^-^6}{7.22\;\times\;10^-^1^9} \\e^-=1.38\;\times\;10^1^2$

The number of electrons present in $\rm 1\;\mu J$ energy has been $\rm \bold{1.38\;\times\;10^1^2}$ .

d. The maximum kinetic energy (K.E.) of the radiation has been given as:

$K.E.=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda} -E^'$

Where, the value of constant, $h=6.626\;\times\;10^{-34}\;\rm J.s$

The speed of light, $c=3\;\times\;\rm m/s$

The wavelength of the radiation, $\lambda=122\;\times\;10^-^9\;\rm m$

Energy of each electron, $E'=7.22\;\times\;10^{-19}\;\rm J$

Substituting the values, for kinetic energy:

$K.E.=\dfrac{6.626\;\times\;10^{-34}\;\times\;3.0\;\times\;10^8}{122\;\times\;10^-^9}\;-\;7.22\;\times\;10^-^1^9\;\rm J \\\textit {K.E.}=9.1\;\times\;10^{-19}\;J$

The kinetic energy of the emitted electrons as been $\rm \bold{9.1\;\times\;10^-^1^9\;J}$ .

a) 7.22 × 10⁻¹⁹ J; b) 275 nm; c) 1.38× 10¹² electrons; d) 9.1 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

a) Minimum energy to eject photon

E = hf = 6.626× 10⁻³⁴ J·s × 1.09 × 10¹⁵ s⁻¹ = 7.22 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

b) Wavelength required

fλ = c

$\lambda = \dfrac{c}{f } = \dfrac{2.998 \times 10^{8}\text{ m/s}}{1.09 \times 10^{15}\text{/s}} = 2.75 \times 10^{-7} \text{ m} = \textbf{275 nm}$

c) Electrons required

$\text{No. of electrons} = 1.00 \times 10^{-6}\text{ J} \times \dfrac{\text{1 electron}}{7.22 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J}} = 1.38 \times 10^{12}\text{ electrons}$

d) Kinetic energy of electrons

a) Energy of photon

$E = hf = \dfrac{\text{hc}}{\lambda} = \dfrac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \text{ J$\cdot$ s}\times 2.998 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}}{122 \times 10^{-9}\text{ m}}= 1.63 \times 10^{-18} \text{ J}$

b) Maximum kinetic energy

The equation for the photoelectric effect is

hf = φ + KE, where

φ = the work function of the metal — the minimum energy needed to eject an electron

KE = hf - φ = 1.63× 10⁻¹⁸ J - 7.22× 10⁻¹⁹ J = 9.1 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

The independent variable is the type of music.the dependent variable is the pulse rate.the intervening variable is the age of the subject.if the mother does not like rock, her pulse is likely to not increase.the same might be true for the sister.the friend may like rap and gets excited.to establish cause/effect relationship, all of the subjects must be consistent.hope i .
