The Photoelectric Effect (Grade 12 NSC Matric Physical Sciences): Quizzes

Emission of electrons when light hits a surface

Max velocity was independent of light intensity

Packets of energy called quanta (photons)

Min energy to knock an electron out of metal

$W_0 = hf_0$

$E_{k_{max}} = hf - W_0$

Min frequency below which no electrons emitted

Number of photons, not their energy

Frequency of incident light
