In order for an electron to be emitted, the energy of the incoming photon must be greater than the work function of the metal. A work function tells us the minimum energy an electron needs to gain in order to escape the material in which it is embedded. A gold cathode plate has a work function of 5.1 eV.
If there is a voltage of 3.5 V applied across the plates, with the electrons ejected from the positive plate, what is the magnitude in eV of the potential energy that an electron will lose when it crosses this gap? The answer is: ____ eV
