Question 1 Report
(a) Write Einstein's photoelectric equation and identh: each component of the equation.
(b) For a photocell, star; one factor each that is responsible fo: the:
(i) emission (ii) rate of emission;
(iii) energy of photoelectrons.
(c)(i) Two nuclear equations are given below:
\(^{222}_{p}RN\) \(\to\) \(^{218}_{84}PO + ^q_2He\)...................A
\(^{214}_{83}RN\) \(\to\) \(^{214}_{84}PO + ^m_nX\)...................B
Determine the values of: (\(\alpha\)) p and q in equation A; (\(\beta\)) in and n in equation B and identify X.
(ii) Give a reason why it is important to dispose o radioactive waste safely.
(d)(i) A certain atom emits ultra violet photon of wavelength 2.4 x10\(^{-7}\)m. Calculate the energy of the photon:
----------------- - 6.0 x 10\(^{-19}\)J
---------------- - 8.2 x 10\(^{-19}\)J
---------------- - 8.8 x 10\(^{-19}\)J
---------------- - 16.7 x 10\(^{-19}\)J
(ii) The figure above illustrates the energy levels o the atom. Copy the figure in your answer booklet anc indicate on it, the energy level transitions which cause the emission of the photon in (d)(i) above. [h= 6.6 x 10\(^{-34}\) Js; c = 3.0 x 108 ms\(^{-1}\)].
