ce Predict/Explain Light of a particular wavelength does not eject electrons from the surface of a given metal. (a) Should thewavelength of the light be increased or decreased in order tocause electrons to be ejected? (b) Choose the best explanation fromamong the following: I. The photons have too little energy to eject electrons. To in-crease their energy, their wavelength should be increased.II. The energy of a photon is proportional to its frequency; thatis, inversely proportional to its wavelength. To increase theenergy of the photons so they can eject electrons, one mustdecrease their wavelength.
a) So in order to eject electrons from the metal surface we have to decrease the wavelength of theincident radiation.b) The energy of a photon proportional to its frequency that is, inversely proportional to itswavelength. To increase the energy of the photons so they can eject electrons one mustdecrease their wave length.

art, eh? Huh? Part in development Off the light should be decreased in order to cause electrons to be rejected on the battle end off the light lander. Javelin. Uh, off the light off the light, uh, should be decreased. Should be ah, decreased should be decreased in order to cause electrons to be ejected. Uh, we know that e is equal to edge and, uh, see is equal lender, and it cools. See, divided by r f equals C divided by lambda and substituting f We have, ah, e equals or edge of equals Each times see divided by lender. So it's obvious from this equation. If lambda is decreased, then the energy off for dawn increases. And then it can, uh, because electrons to be ejected from the metal surface. Uh, no legs sold. Part B. Well, in Barbie, the second option is the best explanation. Ah, the energy off for dawn is proportional to its frequency. Are these radically proportional to a frequency and that is inversely proportional to its valent. And, uh, energy is inversely proportional to, uh, babbling to increase the energy off the photons. Um, so they can eject electron one must decrease. Ah, Valent. One must decrease the, uh, prevalent. So second option is the best explanation
