In the photoelectric effect, why is the kinetic energy of the electrons independent of the intensity of light?

In our situation, the stopping potential doesn’t let any electron to pass. When we increase the frequency of incident light, the electrons get more energy. We know it from equation E=hf. When electrons ga...

A footballer kicks a ball vertically upwards. Initially, the ball is stationary. His boot is in contact with the ball for 0.050s. The average resultant force on the ball during this time is 180N. The ball leaves his foot at 20m/s. Calculate the impulse

Impulse is Force x TimeThe force has been given as 180N. The time that the foot was in contact with the ball was 0.05sImpulse=FxtImpulse=180x0.05Impulse= 9Ns

In the early 20th Century the plum pudding model of the atom was replaced by the nuclear model of the atom, explain why this happened.

The plum pudding model defined the atom as a particle in which the charge and the mass of the atom was spread evenly. An experiment was set up in which alpha particles where shot to a thin gold foil. The ...
