What is a photon?
Describe the
photoelectric effect
hf = + KEmax
hf = energy of incident photon, is the
work function of the metal (energy required
to release an electron from the surface),
KEmax is the maximum kinetic energy of
electrons released. The equation derives
from conservation of energy.
Describe an experiment to
measure Plancks constant
