The photoelectric effect in a cosmic context. Ultraviolet radiation striking dust grains composed of the moon’s dominant rock type, feldspar (with work function 4.5 eV), leaves them with a small electric charge. Smaller grains levitate due to the resulting electrostatic repulsion, giving the surface a diffuse dust halo.
200 nm ultraviolet strikes a dust grain and ejects an electron.What is the electron’s kinetic energy?A. 1.7 eV B. 4.5 eVC. 6.2 eV D. 10.7 eV
Calculate the energy of a 800 nm photon.
b. Find the wavelength and frequency of a 80-MeV photon.
Given that the maximum wavelength for photoelectric emission in tungsten is 230 nm, what
wavelength of light must be used to eject electrons with a maximum energy of 1.6 eV?
