Which of the following phenomena supports the theory that waves have a particle nature?
electron diffraction
photoelectric effect
diffraction of light
x-ray interference
Correct answer is B
The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when electromagnetic radiation, such as light, hits a material. Electrons emitted in this manner are called photoelectrons.

5.56 x 1019Hz
1.66 x 1019Hz
1.12 x 1015Hz
8.42 x 1014Hz
Correct answer is C
F = \(\frac{K.E + Wo}{h}\)
= \(\frac{3.0 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} + 2.56 \times 106{-19}}{6.6 \times 106{-34}}\)
- 1.12 x 10-15HZ
