Explain :energyphoton energyof electron andno ofphotons inphotoelectriceffect.

Answer»

SOLUTION :Einstein (1905)wasableto explainthe photoelectriceffect usingplankquantum theoryof electromagneticradiation .
Shiminga beamof lighton toa metalsurfacecanthereforebe viewedas shooting a BEAM ofparticlethe photons.Whena photon ofsufficientenergystrikesan ELECTRONIN theatomof the metalittransfers it ENERGY instantaneouslyto theelectronduringthe collisionand theelectronis ejectedwithout any TIMELAG ordelay
A moreintensebeamof lightconsistsof largernumberof photonsconsequently the numberof electronsejectedis alsolarger.
