Unit 5 Test - Modern Physics Problems (27 marks) 1. The rate of decay of a radioisotope is given in the following table. (2 marks) Time (days) 0 3 6 9 12 Mass remaining (g) 320 160 80 40 20 a) What is the half-life of the radioisotope? b) How much time is required (from the original 320 g sample) for the mass of the remaining radioisotope to decrease to 5 g? 2. A particle has a de Broglie wavelength of 6.8 1014 m. Calculate the mass of the particle if it is travelling at a speed of 1.4 106 m/s. (3 marks) 3. The energy level of an electron in the nth level of a hydrogen atom is given by the following equation. En = Find the frequency of the emitted photon when an electron falls from the fifth to the second level. (4 marks) 4. Write the equation for each reaction. (6 marks) a) carbon-10 ( ) decayed by positron emission b) gold-198 ( c) radium-223 ( ) decayed by beta minus emission ) decayed by alpha emission 5. Blue light, with a frequency of 6.67 1014 Hz, is directed onto a metal surface with a work function of 2.60 eV. a) Calculate the maximum kinetic energy, in joules, of the ejected electrons. (3 marks) b) Calculate the stopping potential that will reduce the photocurrent to zero. Hint: Recall that an electron’s charge is 1.60 1019 C and that V = 6. The binding energy of . (3 marks) is 127.5 MeV. Find its atomic mass. (6 marks) Unit 5 Test - Modern Physics Answer Section PROBLEM 1. ANS: a) b) 3 days c) 18 days PTS: 1 2.
