ONLY ANSWER 3 AND USE OTHER QUESTIONS FOR CONTEXT
Suppose we have two sources of light, a deep red one with wavelength 700 nm, and a violet one with wavelength 400 nm. Both produce the same optical power, delivering 1 milliwatt (10−310−3 watts) of energy per second per square centimeter to a metal target with an area of 1cm2 located 1 meter from the sources.
1. Which color would deliver more photons each second?
All the photoelectrons that are produced from the light are presumed to be collected by another electrode and we determine the current in amperes using a circuit and an "ammeter", that is, some device that can give a precise quantitative measure of the current. Such a device might use the magnetic field generated by the current, or the voltage produced when the current flows across a resistance.
2. If the work function of the surface is 2 eV, will we see a current with both colors, one color, or neither one? If so, how much (in amperes), or if not, explain.
3. If we now…
The comment is written by professor. Please write your explain and reason detail. Also, please tell me where I'm wrong.
4. The special theory of relativity predicts that there is an upper limit to the speed of a particle. It therefore follows that there is also an upper limit on the following properties of a particle.a. the kinetic energyb. the total energyc. the linear momentumd. more than one of thesee. none of these
