Explanation:

The photoelectric effect is a phenomenon in physics.

The effect is based on the idea that electromagnetic radiation is made of a series of particles called photons.

When a photon hits an electron on a metal surface, the electron can be emitted.

The emitted electrons are called photoelectrons.

Example:-

The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons from a metal when light is incident on the surface.

It also suggests that electrons would absorb these photons on a one-on-one basis.
