(a)
The reason that the graph of figure 38.3 are mostly horizontal for
Introduction: The emission of electrons from a substance due to striking of light on the surface known as
(b)
The reason that the emitted photoelectrons from the cathode have wide range of kinetic energy instead of having sane kinetic energy.
Introduction: The emission of electrons from a substance due to striking of light on the surface known as photoelectric effect. The emitted electrons are called photoelectron. In the photoelectric effect electron is ejected from the cathode plate of the tube.
(b)
The reason that the stopping potential
