Hi please help: Light of frequency 9.95×10^14Hz ejects electrons from the surface of silver. If the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected electrons is 1.80×10−20 J , what is the work function of silver?
Compton effect
The incoming photons' energy must be in the range of an X-ray frequency to generate the Compton effect. The electron does not lose enough energy that reduces the wavelength of scattered photons towards the visible spectrum. As a result, with visible lights, the Compton effect is missing.
Recoil Velocity
The amount of backward thrust or force experienced by a person when he/she shoots a gun in the forward direction is called recoil velocity. This phenomenon always follows the law of conservation of linear momentum.
