Q
Based on the equation below which is true?
Lambda = h/mu 
h = plank's constant 
m = mass
u = speed 
  • Particles with a high wavelength must have a low mass
  • in order to max the wavelength, one should increase the value of h.
  • particles with a high mass will have a small de Broglie Wavelength
  • particles moving very slowly will have a long de Broglie Wavelength
A
  1. Wrong:
    Wavelength depends on both mass and speed.
  2. Wrong:
    Plank’s constant is a constant, it is not adjustable.
  3. Correct:
    Particles with a high mass will have a small de Broglie Wavelength
  4. Correct:
    Particles moving very slowly will have a long de Broglie wavelength

Q

In a photoelectric diode, no current will flow unless light of a certain minimum “threshold” frequency is used. Which of the following explains this observation correctly?

  • the photons of light must be moving fast enough to dislodge the electrons from the metal
  • intensity of light must be sufficient to allow electrons to break free from the metal
  • Energy of the photons of light must match or exceed the energy needed for elections to break free from the metal
A

Energy of the photons of light must match or exceed the energy needed for electrons to break free from the metal
