A photocathode has a work function of 2.4 eV. The photocathode is illuminated with monochromatic radiation whose photon energy is 3.4 eV. The maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons produced is closest to:
 
  A) 1.6  10-19 J
  B) 3.8  10-19 J
  C) 4.4  10-19 J
  D) 4.9  10-19 J
  E) 5.4  10-19 J

Question 2

You and your friend, who weighs the same as you, want to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Your friend takes the elevator straight up. You decide to walk up the spiral stairway, taking longer to do so.
 
  Compare the gravitational potential energy of you and your friend, after you both reach the top. A) It is impossible to tell, since the times you both took are unknown.
  B) It is impossible to tell, since the distances you both traveled are unknown.
  C) Your friend's gravitational potential energy is greater than yours, because he got to the top faster.
  D) Both of you have the same amount of gravitational potential energy at the top.
  E) Your gravitational potential energy is greater than that of your friend, because you traveled a greater distance in getting to the top.

Did you know?

Hyperthyroidism leads to an increased rate of metabolism and affects about 1% of women but only 0.1% of men. For most people, this increased metabolic rate causes the thyroid gland to become enlarged (known as a goiter).

Did you know?

To combat osteoporosis, changes in lifestyle and diet are recommended. At-risk patients should include 1,200 to 1,500 mg of calcium daily either via dietary means or with supplements.

Did you know?

Adolescents often feel clumsy during puberty because during this time of development, their hands and feet grow faster than their arms and legs do. The body is therefore out of proportion. One out of five adolescents actually experiences growing pains during this period.

Did you know?

When intravenous medications are involved in adverse drug events, their harmful effects may occur more rapidly, and be more severe than errors with oral medications. This is due to the direct administration into the bloodstream.

Did you know?

The senior population grows every year. Seniors older than 65 years of age now comprise more than 13% of the total population. However, women outlive men. In the 85-and-over age group, there are only 45 men to every 100 women.
