Analysing the Photoelectric Effect (HSC SSCE Physics): Flashcards

$E = hf$

Min. energy to remove electron from metal

$\phi = hf_0$

$K_{\text{max}} = hf - \phi$

Photon freq. > cut-off freq. ($f > f_0$)

Planck's constant ($h$)

Lose energy in collisions before escape

Zero

Ten years

Negative work function ($-\phi$)
