The seeing ability or resolution of radiation is determined by its wavelength. If an atom is approximately 10-10 m in diameter, how fast must an electron travel to have a wavelength smaller than the size of an atom?

Question 2

If a rubidium surface is irradiated with blue light of wavelength 450.0 nm, what is the kinetic energy of the electrons emitted? (The work function for rubidium is f = 2.09 eV.)

Over time, chronic hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections can progress to advanced liver disease, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Unlike other forms, more than 80% of hepatitis C infections become chronic and lead to liver disease. When combined with hepatitis B, hepatitis C now accounts for 75% percent of all cases of liver disease around the world. Liver failure caused by hepatitis C is now leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.
