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 reverse process of photoelectric effect?
reverse process of photo electric effect is done by the supply of electrons or heat to the metal that radiate certain radiation. among them the metals which emit visible radiation are normally used in house hold appliances
What is the ability of light to cause electron movement and electric current?
The photo-electric effect is the ability of light to cause the movement of electrons, which is called an electric current.
What does photoelectric effect in plants refer to?
Photo relates to light. Of course light is electromagnetic wave. Electric relates to electron movement. So by making electromagnetic waves such gamma ray, X-ray, UV rays and even visible light we can eject electrons right from the surface of certain substances. This is termed as photo electric effect or emission.
The emission of electrons from metal caused by light striking the metal is called?
Photoelectric effect.===================================== This phenomenon was discovered by Albert Einstein, for which he received the Nobel Prize for Physics. The solar cells that we use today is a direct application of the photoelectric effect, as the special metal absorbs Sun's photons and gives off electron (and the flow of electrons generates an electric current).
Are alkali metals suitable for photo electric emission?
yes alkali metals are suitable for photo electric emission
What alkali metal is using for photo cells?
Cesium
What properties of light cannot be described by using the wave model of light?
Photo electric emisson or photo electric effect
What are the proofs of the particles of nature of light?
photo electric effect,compton's effect
What are the proofs of the particles nature of light?
photo electric effect,compton's effect
Electrons ejected in the photoelectric effect are called?
Photo electrons. So current due to these photo electrons is named as photo electric current.
Are all metals useful for photo electric effect?
The photoelectric effect can be demonstrated using any metal. But for some ofthem, you might have to come up with a source of inconveniently-high-energyE&M radiation in order to demonstrate it.
For what topic did Albert Einstein win a Nobel Peace Prize?
it was for photo electric effect ~_~
What is the reverse process of photoelectric effect?
reverse process of photo electric effect is done by the supply of electrons or heat to the metal that radiate certain radiation. among them the metals which emit visible radiation are normally used in house hold appliances
Who discover photo electric effect and what date?
The photo electric effect was explained by Einstein in 1905 when he theorized that light could transfer its energy like a particle and knock electrons out of metals. But the actual effect had been observed by a number of scientists since 1887, they just couldn't come up with a satisfactory theory that explained everything they observed. I believe he got the Nobel Prize for his photo electric effect theory, although he is more famous for his Relativity theories.
What is the ability of light to cause electron movement and electric current?
The photo-electric effect is the ability of light to cause the movement of electrons, which is called an electric current.
What famous prize did Albert Einstein win?
The Nobel Prize for his work on the photo-electric effect.
