Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If you have light of two different frequencies, ν₁ = 5 × 10¹⁴ Hz (above threshold) and ν₂ = 3 × 10¹⁴ Hz (below threshold), describe the resulting effect on electron emission. Assume φ is known. What are the kinetic energies?

💡 Hint: Assess energy differences based on frequency and work function.

Question 2

A beam of light strikes a metal surface and the stopping potential is measured at various frequencies. How would you show this data graphically, and what should you expect the outcome to indicate?

💡 Hint: Remember the relationship K = eV and how it relates back to frequency.
