4 pts
Electrons are ejected from a metallic surface with speeds ranging up to 3.70e5m/s when light with a wavelength of =625=625nm is used.
(a)
What is the work function of the surface? Hint:These electrons are not relativistic, so you may use 12mv212mv2 for the kinetic energy.
eV (0.02 eV)
(b)
What is the cutoff frequency for this surface?
Hz (2E12 Hz)
