i have the same question on my test haha
for me, the answers are:
a) The number of electrons ejected per second
b) the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected electrons
c) the threshold frequency of the ejected electrons
d) the time lag between the absorption of blue light and the start of emission of the electrons
e) none of these A the number of electrons ejected per second,,,,, correct answer

Why will fires increase in frequency and intensity during global warming?
Because the temperature on the Earth is increased.
Is it true that an increase in light intensity will not increase the rate of photosynthesis?
No, that is not true and increasing light intensity increases the photosynthetic rate, to a point. The saturation point is reached when the reactions in the reaction center have reached top speed and any more light intensity will not increase the rate of photosynthesis.
Is velocity of electrons increase by increasing voltage?
Depends on what is between the potential difference (ie, the voltage). If it's an evaculated tube, and the electrons are travelling between the anode and the cathode without much interference, then then a higher voltage will mean that the electrons arrive with more kinetic energy -- ie, increased velocity. However, if there's a wire between the two voltages, then the drift velocity of the electrons (which is pretty slow to begin with) does not increase, but only the number of electrons that are drifting.
How do you increase sunlight intensity?
A lens can be used to concentrate light. A group of mirrors aimed at the same location as they track the Sun would increase its' intensity. Upto 7000 degrees.
Why does the size of d-block elements decrease gradually in the periodic table?
As increase in proton number, the attraction from nucleus towards electrons increased. This will pull the electrons stongly. So, the size/ atomic radius decreased across the d-block.
How can the rate of thermal decomposition of potassium chlorate be increased?
Increase the temperature
How do you increase the intensity of the x - ray?
The intensity of the x-ray can be increased by the voltage going to the cathode which will increase the amount of electrons being given off through the vacuum and hitting the tungsten target which means more electrons hitting the target so more x-ray radiation being given off. You can also change how fine the beam is because if you have the beam of electrons focused on one area then the increase of the electrons hitting that one area will cause the increase in x-rays being given off instead of them being spread out over a large area.
Why will fires increase in frequency and intensity during global warming?
Because the temperature on the Earth is increased.
Does adding electrons to the circuit increase the emf?
No. But if you increased the EMF across the circuit, then more electrons would flow through it each second.
What is the effect of doubling the intensity of light on the number of electrons being emitted from a metal?
Visible light of a different frequency is a different color. Visible light of a higher frequency is closer to the violet end of the spectrum. If the frequency of a light source were increased, then the wavelength of its emission would decrease, because the product of (frequency) x (wavelength) is always the same number for all light in the same medium.
What is increase intensity?
increase in extent
Is it true that an increase in light intensity will not increase the rate of photosynthesis?
No, that is not true and increasing light intensity increases the photosynthetic rate, to a point. The saturation point is reached when the reactions in the reaction center have reached top speed and any more light intensity will not increase the rate of photosynthesis.
How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis?
Higher light intensity increases the rate of photosynthesis and vice versa.more intense light means more energy in the light, so the chloroplasts get more energy from light, making photosynthesis go faster
By how many times must the distance from a point source be increased to reduce the sound intensity by half?
Increase the distance by 70.7% . To 1.707 times the original distance.
How does energy required to remove an electrons from an atom changer as you move left to right in period 4 from potassium through iron?
It generally tends to increase
How does the amplitude affect the energy of a wave?
The intensity will increase if the energy increase. The intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude of a wave.
What happens to capacitance if voltage is increased?
The capacitance will remain the same. However, the energy stored (Ie. number of electrons displaced) will increase.
