An electron ejected from the surface of a material by the photoelectric effect
The photoelectric effect is a phenomenom that occurs when you fire a photon with high enough energy aggainst matter, and it expells an electron after absorbing the photon's energy.
The particle nature of light is illustrated by the photoelectric effect.
I think that it is impossible for a massless body to move an electron from its path. Photons are massless but how they are able to displace an electron having mass.
In order for an electron to be ejected from a metal surface, the electron must be struck by a photon with at least the minimum energy needed to knock the electron loose.

Photoelectric effect
No,The production of x rays is a reverse process of photoelectric effect. X rays are produced when target metal is bombarded by electrons while in photoelectric effect, the electron are produced when light waves are incident on a metal surface.

conditions of photoelectric effect
The production of x rays is a reverse process of photoelectric effect. X rays are produced when target metal is bombarded by electrons while in photoelectric effect, the electron are produced when light waves are incident on a metal surface.
It's the frequency at which each photon has the amount of energy required to separate an electron from an atom in the target substance.
I think X-rays are the reverse process of photoelectric effect.
It had most effect on outer shell electrons.
