Photoelectric Effect1
INTRODUCTION
When red light hits the metal foil, the foil does not
emit (give off) electrons.
Blue light has more energy than red light.
E photon = ø (phi)+KEelectron
EQUATION
h is Planck's constant
f is the frequency of photon
ø is the work function, which ids the minimum energy
required to remove and electron from the surface of a
given metal
KE is the maximum kinetic energy of ejected electrons
