Define: i) photoelectric work function ii) electron volt (eV) |
| Answer» Solution :Photoelectric work function: Work function of a metal surface is the minimum amount of energy required to liberate an electron from the metal surface. Electron VOLT (eV): 1eV is the energy ACQUIRED by an electron when it is accelerated by applying a POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE of one volt. `i,e leV=1.6 xx 10^(-19)J` | |
