- 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…arrow_forwardPlease count this as 4 questions if possible. I want this fully answered on one response please.arrow_forwardQuestion B1 [This question will required roughly two single-sided A4 pages to answer.] Consider a hypothetical, spherically symmetric star of mass M and radius R, for which the den- sity profile is represented by p(r) = Pc [1 − (r/R)²], where pc is the central density and r is the radial distance from the center of the star. a) If the star is in hydrostatic equilibrium, by considering the forces acting on a volume ele- ment, show that the following expression must apply: dP dr Gm(r) p 12 where P is the pressure as a function of radial position and m(r) is the mass interior to the radius r. b) For the hypothetical star, with the given density as a function of radius p(r) = pc [1-(r/R)²], show that m(r) can be written as m(r) = 1½πr³ p 31.2 5R² c) Show that the average density p of the star (i.e., total mass divided by total volume) is given by p = 0.4pc. d) e) Given that the pressure is zero when r = R, show that the central pressure is given by Pe= 15 G M² 16π R4 ΜΗ The star is…arrow_forward
