The photoelectric effect provided evidence that supported the early suggestion by Max Planck that
electromagnetic waves exist as discrete packets of energy.
a. Describe the energy transformations that occur during the photoelectric effect.
b. If the incident light was not causing the emission of any electrons from the target metal, how
could the light be changed to start causing emission of electrons? Explain your answer.
c. Rather than changing the light source, explain why changing the target metal from part (c) may
allow for the detection of emitted electrons.
