The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons from the surface of a metal due to exposure of electromagnetic radiation above a certain frequency.
Photon energy (E=hf or E=hc/λ).
The work...

Matter and antimatter will annihilate if they meet:
1) Particle meets antiparticle.
2) Both have rest energies due to their masses.
3) Both have kinetic energies due to their movement (i...

The Strong Nuclear Force keeps protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.Its range is no more than about 3-4 fentometres.
It has equal effects between a proton-neutron, neutron-neutron and proton-...

Newton's Second Law of Motion F=ma is very important because it shows the relationship between forces and motion. It allows you to calculate the acceleration (and therefore velocity and position) of an...

This question is all about the application of Special Relativity. In order to solve this problem we need to identify that the correct equation to use here is:t= (gamma factor)t₀Where t is the t...
