The Electron: Photoelectric Effect 2
Cards in this deck (9)
- 1Photoelectric EffectWhen electrons are emitted from the surface of a metal due to electromagnetic radiation hitting the metal
- 2PhotonBundle of light energy
- 3Energy of a photonE = hf
- 4Einstein's Photoelectric LawThe energy of the fastest electron emitted is the difference between the energy of the photon and the work function of the metal
- 5Work functionThe energy needed to remove the loosest electron from the surface of a metal
- 6Threshold frequencyThe minimum frequency needed to cause photoelectric emission
- 7Velocity of the emitted electron depends on ..The frequency of the light wave
- 8Number of electrons emitted depends on ...The intensity of the light
- 9Formula for Einstein's Photoelectric Lawhf = ϕ + 1/2(m)(vmax)²
Information
- Description
- This flash card deck covers the photoelectric effect, photons and Einstein's photoelectric law. It includes information learnt from the mind map on the electron, and the note on the photoelectric effect.
