A point source is emitting 0.2 W of ultravio- let radiation at a wavelength of lambda = 2537 Å . This source is placed at a distance of 1.0 m from the cathode of a photoelectric cell. The cathode is made of potassium (Work function = 2.22 eV ) and has a surface area of 4 cm^(2) . (a) According to classical theory, what time of exposure to the radiation shall be required for a potassium atom to accumulate sufficient energy to eject a photoelectron. Assume that radius of each potassium atom is 2 Å and it absorbs all energy incident on it. (b) Photon flux is defined as number of light photons reaching the cathode in unit time. Calculate the photon flux. (c) Photo efficiency is defined as probability of a photon being successful in knocking out an electron from the metal surface. Calculate the saturation photocurrent in the cell assuming a photo efficiency of 0.1. (d) Find the cut – off potential difference for the cell.

A classical model for the hydrogen atom consists of a singal electron of mass m_(e) in circular motion of radius r around the nucleous (proton). Since the electron is accelerated, the atom continuously radiates electromagnetic waves. The total power P radiated by the atom is given by P = P_(0)//r^(4) where P_(0) = (epsi^(6))/(96pi^(3)epsi_(0)^(3)c^(3)m_(epsi)^(2)) (c = velocity of light) (i) Find the total energy of the atom. (ii) Calculate an expression for the radius r(t) as a function of time. Assume that at t = 0 , the radiys is r_(0) = 10^(-10)m . (iii) Hence or otherwise find the time t_(0) when the atom collapses in a classical model of the hydrogen atom. Take: [2/(sqrt(3))(e^(2))/(4piepsi_(0))1/(m_(epsi)c^(2)) = r_(e) ~~ 3 xx 10^(-15) m]

Two stars bound together by gravity orbit othe because of their mutual attraction. Such a pair of stars is referred to as a binary star system. One type of binary system is that of a black hole and a companion star. The black hole is a star that has cullapsed on itself and is so missive that not even light rays can escape its gravitational pull therefore when describing the relative motion of a black hole and companion star, the motion of the black hole can be assumed negligible compared to that of the companion. The orbit of the companion star is either elliptical with the black hole at one of the foci or circular with the black hole at the centre. The gravitational potential energy is given by U=-GmM//r where G is the universal gravitational constant, m is the mass of the companion star, M is the mass of the black hole, and r is the distance between the centre of the companion star and the centre of the black hole. Since the gravitational force is conservative. The companion star and the centre of the black hole, since the gravitational force is conservative the companion star's total mechanical energy is a constant.

Parigee isthe point at which the companion star is closest to the black hole, and apogee is the point at which is the farthest from the black hole. Q. For circular orbits the potential energy of the companion star is constant throughout the orbit. if the radius of the orbit doubles, what is the new value of the velocity of the companion star?
