Answer from: escojo942

The threshold frequency fo of Cesium is 4.83 × 10¹⁴ Hz

Further explanation

The term of package of electromagnetic wave radiation energy was first introduced by Max Planck. He termed it with photons with the magnitude is:

$\large {\boxed {E = h \times f}}$

E = Energi of A Photon ( Joule )

h = Planck's Constant ( 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js )

f = Frequency of Eletromagnetic Wave ( Hz )

The photoelectric effect is an effect in which electrons are released from the metal surface when illuminated by electromagnetic waves with large enough of radiation energy.

$\large {\boxed {E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \Phi}}$

$\large {\boxed {E = qV + \Phi}}$

E = Energi of A Photon ( Joule )

m = Mass of an Electron ( kg )

v = Electron Release Speed ( m/s )

Ф = Work Function of Metal ( Joule )

q = Charge of an Electron ( Coulomb )

V = Stopping Potential ( Volt )

Let us now tackle the problem!

Given:

Φ = 2.1 eV = 2 × 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ Joule = 3.20 × 10⁻¹⁹ Joule

Unknown:

fo = ?

Solution:

$\Phi = h \times fo$

$3.20 \times 10^{-19} = 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times fo$

$fo = ( 3.20 \times 10^{-19} ) \div ( 6.63 \times 10^{-34} )$

$\large {\boxed{fo = 4.83 \times 10^{14} ~ Hz} }$

What is the threshold frequency ν0 of cesium? note that 1 ev (electron volt)=1.60×10−19 j. express

Answer from: chanel2371

The threshold frequency of the cesium is $\fbox{\begin\\5.06 \times {10^{14}}\,{\text{Hz}}\end{minispace}}$ .

Further Explanation:

The threshold energy is the amount of energy required by an electron so that it is ejected from the surface of the material.

Concept:

The photoelectric effect is the process in which emission of the electron from the surface of material when they acquire sufficient amount of energy from the photon (i.e. the packets of energy) to release from the surface of the material.

The threshold energy of the electron can be expressed as:

$\fbox{\begin\\E = {E_k} + \phi\end{minispace}}$

Here, is the amount of energy supplied to the surface by a photon, ${E_k}$ is the amount of kinetic energy of electron after emission and $\phi$ is the work function of the material.

The work function of a surface is the minimum amount of energy to be incident on the surface of a metal such that it can emit the electron.

The work function of material can be expressed as:

$\phi=h{\nu _0}$

Here, ${\nu _0}$ is the threshold frequency of the electron.

The work function of the cesium is $2.1\,{\text{eV}}$ .

Convert the work function in to Joules.

$\begin{aligned}\phi&=2.1{\mkern1mu} {\text{eV}}\left({1.6 \times{{10}^{ - 19}}}\right)\,{\text{J}}\\&=3.36\times10^{-19}\text{ J}\\\end{aligned}$

Substitute $3.36\times{10^{-19}}\,{\text{J}}$ for $\phi$ and $6.63\times{10^{-34}\text{ kg.m}^2/\text{s}$ for in expression for work function.

$\begin{aligned}3.36\times{10^{-19}}&=\left({6.63\times{{10}^{-34}}}\right){\nu_0}\\{\nu_0}&=\frac{{3.36\times{{10}^{-19}}}}{{6.63\times{{10}^{-34}}}}\\&=5.06\times{10^{14}}\,{\text{Hz}}\\\end{aligned}$

Thus, the threshold frequency of cesium is $5.06 \times {10^{14}}\,{\text{Hz}}$ .

Answer from: Quest

Iread this book last year so take this with a grain of salt.gene jumps from the tree to compete with finny due to the fact that gene is always trying to do better than finny. he is put under the grasp of peer pressure due to finny almost forcing him to do this. ever since he first jumped finny kept pressuring him to jump since he thought gene enjoyed jumping.rather than uses this answer you should probably just reread chapters 3-4

How many milliliters of water at 23 °c with a density of 1.00 g/ml must be mixed with 180 ml (about 6 oz) of coffee at 95 °c so that the resulting combination will have a temperature of 60 °c? assume that coffee and water have the same density and the same specific heat. how much will the temperature of a cup (180 g) of coffee at 95 °c be reduced when a 45 g silver spoon (specific heat 0.24 j/g °c) at 25 °c is placed in the coffee and the two are allowed to reach the same temperature? assume that the coffee has the same density and specific heat as water. a 45-g aluminum spoon (specific heat 0.88 j/g °c) at 24 °c is placed in 180 ml (180 g) of coffee at 85 °c and the temperature of the two become equal. (a) what is the final temperature when the two become equal? assume that coffee has the same specific heat as water. (b) the first time a student solved this problem she got an answer of 88 °c. explain why this is clearly an incorrect answer.
