In a photoelectric-effect experiment, the photocurrent ifor large positive values of has the same value no matter whatthe light frequency f(provided that f is higher than the thresholdfrequency f0). Explain why.
Speeds of molecules in a gas vary with temperature, whereas speeds of electrons in the conduction band of a metal are nearly independent of temperature. Why are these behaviors so different?
For a body orbiting the sun, such as a planet, comet, or asteroid, is there any restriction on the z-component of its orbital angular momentum such as there is with the z-component of the electron’s orbital angular momentum in hydrogen? Explain.
Why is the alpha, beta, or gamma decay of an unstable nucleus unaffected by the chemical situation of the atom, such as the nature of the molecule or solid in which it is bound? The chemical situation of the atom can, however, have an effect on the half-life in electron capture. Why is this?
Does the speedometer of a car measure speed or velocity? Explain.
