(a) Define binding energy in an atom.

(b) List three evidence to support the claim that X-rays are electromagnetic waves.

(c) List three peaceful uses of nuclear energy.

(d) Light of wavelength 4.5 x 10\(^{-7}\) in is incident on a metal resulting in the emission of photo electrons. If the work function of the metal is 3.0 x 10\(^{-9}\) J, calculate the:

(i) frequency of the incident light;

(ii) energy of the incident light;

(iii) energy of the photoelectrons. [Speed of light = 3.0 x 10\(^8\) ms\(^{-1}\), h = 6.6 x 10\(^{-34}\) Js]
