with best labelled circuit diagram, describe the experiment to study the characteristics of photoelectric effect
Answers
Heyyyy,
The experimental setup consists of:
Evacuated tube consist of photosensitive plate (emitter) and the metal plate (collector), so that electrons could freely flow from emitter to collector without any air resistance
Photosensitive plate (emitter) to absorb visible light and emit electrons
Metal plate (collector) to receive electrons emitted from the emitter, thus constituting a photoelectric current flowfrom collector plate to the emitter plate (opposite to the flow of electrons)
Monochromatic light of short wavelength (meaning high frequency)
Battery to accelerate emitted electrons through a potential difference
Voltmeter to measure the potential difference between the emitter and the collector plates due to photoelectric current flow
Ammeter to measure the value of photoelectric current.
Hope this helps.....
Anyway that is me
