1
Q
No matter what an object is made of, its spectrum
A
Follows a simple curve that depends only on temperature
2
Q
Classical theory vs actual for blackbody radiation
A
Classical theory shows the curve approaching infinite intensity and shorter wavelengths and actual results show a curve that shifts to higher intensities and lower wavelengths
3
Q
Increasing the electric field of the light source leads to
A
Brighter light
4
Q
Consider a photoelectric effect experiment where you already have current and then you increase the electric field. What happens to the current?
A
