More Challenging Questions
These questions require more thought and integrate several concepts.
The energy of a photon needed to cause ejection of an electron from a photoemissive metal is expressed as the sum of the binding energy of the photon plus the kinetic energy of the emitted electron. When photons of 4.00 × 10-7 m light strike a calcium metal surface, electrons are ejected with a kinetic energy of 6.3 × 10-20 J.
(a) Calculate the binding energy of the calcium electrons.
(b) The minimum frequency at which the photoelectric effect occurs for a metal is that for which the emitted electron has no kinetic energy. Calculate the minimum frequency required for the photoelectric effect to occur with calcium metal.
