a) What is the largest wavelength of
light that will produce photoelectrons from lead?
b) What is the largest wavelength of light that
will produce photoelectrons from lithium?
c) Which metal (lead or lithium) held its
electrons stronger? (Hint: Which metal required a
higher energy of light to
create photoelectron emission)
d) Select the LOW INTENSITY button to change
the light to HIGH INTENSITY. Describe
what happened to the light source in
your animation.
e) What setting must you change in this
simulation to change the current recorded by
the ammeter on the bottom of this animation?
f) When you decrease the wavelength of light,
you decrease, or increase the frequency. Underline
a)
What happens to the size
of the scattering angle when the alpha particle comes closer to
the nucleus?
