What is the ability of light to eject an electron from a metal according to albert Einstein?

This is a phenomenon known as the photoelectric effect. Light arrives at the metal and gives energy to the electrons, causing them to be ejected from the metal.


Is anything named after Albert Einstein?

Element : * The radioactive actinide metal "einsteinium" is named for Albert Einstein. It has atomic number 99 and has only been created artificially, in very small quantities. Medical school : * Yeshiva University in New York City named its medical school for Einstein in 1955, the year of his death. It is the Albert Einstein School of Medicine. Astronomy display : * The Albert Einstein Planetarium at the US National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC. Swiss museum: * Historiches Museum Bern, in Switzerland, has established a permanent display of his life and works in its Einstein Museum. Einstein became a Swiss citizen in 1901 and an American citizen in 1940. US High School : * Albert Einstein High School, a four-year secondary school, is located in Kensington, Maryland. Space satellite : * The Einstein Observatory, a high energy x-ray telescope, was launched into Earth orbit on November 13, 1978 and made observations until its re-entry on March 25, 1982. Space Locations : * On the very edge of the visible face of the moon, a crater discovered in 1952 has been named Einstein. (previous name Caramuel) * An asteroid in the Hungaria family of the asteroid belt is named 2001 Einstein. It was discovered on March 5, 1973. University school : * From 1928 to 1948, Jerusalem's Hebrew University had its Einstein Institute of Mathematics on Mount Scopus, which became part of Jerusalem again in 1967.


What happens to electrons in photoelectric effect?

When you shine a certain level of light wavelength on metal, you can knock electrons off the atoms of the metal. This phenomenon was explained by Albert Einstein in 1905, for which he received a Nobel Prize in 1921.


Which model of light best explains interference phenomena?

Albert Einstein in his 1905 paper on the photoelectric effect. Summarize as saying that when a photon strikes a metal it will cause electron flow. Wilhelm Hallwachs made the first photocells. An alloy of metals made the first photoresistors. Then solar cells. Albert did not "invent" the effect, it was already known, but he EXPLAINED how it works.
