MCQ
An electron collides with an atom in its ground state at rest. The atom then emits a photon of energy $E_{photon}$ . In this process the change $\Delta E_{elec}$ in the electron's energy is
  • Greater than $E_{photon}$
  • B
    Greater than or equal to $E_{photon}$
  • C
    Equal to $E_{photon}$
  • D
    Less than or equal to $E_{photon}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
Greater than $E_{photon}$
a
$K_i = K_f + E_{photon} + K_{atom}$

$K_i - K_f = E_{photon} + K_{atom}$

The figure shows elliptical orbit of a planet $m$ about the sun $S.$ The shaded area $SCD$ is twice the shaded area $SAB.$ If $t_1$ is the time for the planet to move from $C$ to $D$ and $t_2$ is the time to move from $A$ to $B$ then
A projectile is thrown from a point $O$ on the ground at an angle $45^{\circ}$ from the vertical and with a speed $5 \sqrt{2} m / s$. The projectile at the highest point of its trajectory splits into two equal parts. One part falls vertically down to the ground, $0.5 s$ after the splitting. The other part, $t$ seconds after the splitting, falls to the ground at a distance $x$ meters from the point $O$. The acceleration due to gravity $g =10 m / s ^2$.
