When ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 400nm falls on a certain metal surface, the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is measured to be 1.10ev. What is the maximum kinetic energy of the electrons I joules when light of wavelength 300nm falls on the surface.
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.
