What properties of light cannot be described by using the wave model of light?
Photo electric emisson or photo electric effect
For what topic did Albert Einstien win a Nobel Peace Prize?
Albert Einstein was awarded the Nobel prize for his work on the photo electric effect.
Why ultraviolet light is used in photoelectric effect?
Just visible light too can be used for photo electric phenomenon. But Hallwachs used UV rays as he used zinc plates. That is all. Moreover the energy of the photon has to be more than the work function of the material being used.
How one can make a photoelectric cell to illuminate a room?
A photo-electric cell responds to light by giving an electric output, it is not for illuminating anything
What characteristic of light did Einstein employ to explain the photo electric effect?
The particle nature of light
Date Einstein won the nobel prize in physics?
1921 for his work on the photo electric effect
What famous prize did Albert Einstein win?
The Nobel Prize for his work on the photo-electric effect.
What is photo electric?
when photons got enough energy and getting out from that meterial electric current produced from that movement called photo electric.
Are alkali metals suitable for photo electric emission?
yes alkali metals are suitable for photo electric emission
What properties of light cannot be described by using the wave model of light?
Photo electric emisson or photo electric effect

Electrons ejected in the photoelectric effect are called?
Photo electrons. So current due to these photo electrons is named as photo electric current.
What is the working principle of photoelectric transducer?
photo electric transducer
What has the author David William Cornelius written?
David William Cornelius has written: 'The study of the velocity of electrons in the photo-electric effect, as a function of the wave-lengths of the light' -- subject(s): Electrons, Radiation
What is the function of resistor in electric circuit?
the function of a resister is to lower the voltage.
