Question

3. For the photoelectric effect, draw the plot for the energy of an emitted electron versus the frequency of the incident light. Explain your diagram. Using the concept of quantized energy, what would you expect to be the effect on the number and energy of the emitted electrons with; a. increasing the intensity of the incident light. b. increasing the frequency of incident light
