I was following one of the examples that my teacher did in class. well if i do 1.242 X 10^-6 / 6.15...it equals 2.01951 but the right answer is 201.7561 nm

i used h=4.14 X 10^ -15 am i supposed to use the other one? h=6.626 X 10^-34 ?

Homework Statement An incident light shines on a mercury metal plate with a work function of -4.5 eV. The stopping voltage is observed to be -1.65 volts. What is the wavelenght of the incident light? Homework Equations wavelength=hc/E-0(it's a Greek sign n i don't have it in my...

A strong lightning bolt transfers about 25 C to Earth. How many electrons are transferred? 1 electrons = 1.60E-19 so.. 25 / 1.60 E -19 = 1.5625E-18 electrons but the answer that my teacher gave us is 1.6 E 20 electrons what did i do wrong?

well what about in a traffic light and when you hit the gas, the things in your car move backward, and when you hit the break that's when the things move forward

thank you so much guys!

delta p= J and J= F(delta t) so delta p=6.0g(350m/s) delta p=2100 2100/1.8=1166.6666667 is that the same thing as 1.2x10^3?

[SOLVED] Formula for average force? In a ballistics test at the police department, Officer Rios fires a 6.0 g bullet at 350 m/s into a container that stops it in 1.8 ms. What is the average force that stops the bullet? can anyone help me to do this? or just give me the formula? The teacher...
