Question:
a. i. Explain what is meant by the wave–particle duality of electromagnetic radiation.
ii. Explain how the photoelectric effect gives evidence for this phenomenon.
The diagram shows the maximum kinetic energy E of the emitted photoelectrons as the frequency f of the incident radiation on a sodium plate is varied.
b. Explain why there are no photoelectrons emitted when the frequency of the incident light is less than 5.6 × 1014 Hz.
c. Determine the work function for sodium. Explain your answer.
d. Use the graph to determine the value of the Planck constant. Explain your answer.
