Using photon picture of light, show how Einstein's photoelectic equation can be established. Write two features of photoelectric effect which cannot be explained by b weve theory.

Answer»

Solution :
Photolectons are EMITTED from plate P and are attracted towards C constituting photo
current. He foundcurrent is a function of potenial difference `V_(CP)` for constant FREQUENCY
and different intensity.
If `V_(CP)`is large and + ve , the current becomes constant.
The relation hv= `Phi_(0)+KE`
(i) Weve theoty states the KE of photoelectrons sholudincrerase with intensity but
`K_(max) = eV_(0)`it is indepandent of intensity.
(ii) Weve theory STATE photoeletron should occure for any frequency of light, contrary,
photoemission is possible for threshold and higher frequencies.
