Reading QuizAll but one of the following results originated from and is explained by quantum physics:
1) Photoelectrons are emitted from a metal instantaneously when light shines on it.
2) Light travels at speed c in all inertial frames of reference.
3) Photons have momentum given by h/λ.4) The Compton effect has both an
incident and exit photon.

Answer: 2Light traveling at speed c in all inertial frames is one of Einstein’s postulates of the special theory of relativity. We use the fact in quantum physics, but we can’t say that quantum physics originated the idea.

An Ideal Blackbody
An ideal blackbody absorbs all the light that is incident on it.
An ideal blackbody is also a perfect emitter.

Blackbody Radiation
Heat up blackbody. Measure intensity emitted as a function of frequency.
Results don’t depend on material – only temperature.
Colors depend on frequency. Treat stars as blackbodies.

The Photoelectric Effect
Light has electric field so it is no surprise that light can cause electrons to be emitted.

Photoelectric effect summary1. Electrons are emitted only when f > f0, where
f0 depends on the metal. C2. For constant f, current is proportional to
intensity of light source. A3. Kmax of electrons is independent of light
intensity, but varies linearly with f . B,C, D4. There is less than 10-9 s delay between
arrival of radiation and emission of electron.Classical interpretation: only 2 can be explained.

Einstein proposed in 1905 that particle-like photons carry energy E = hf. There is a minimum energy required, W, to emit electrons in an atom, and no electrons will be emitted if hf < W. When hf > W, the excess energy is carried off by the electrons as kinetic energy.

W is the work function and depends on type of metal.It takes one photon to liberate an electron.Robert Millikan did experiment in 1916.

Conceptual Quiz:Both the classical and quantum interpretations can explain the following photoelectric effect result:
1) Photoelectrons are emitted instantaneously.2) The stopping potential of the
photoelectrons depends only on light f.3) The maximum kinetic energy of the
electrons is independent of light intensity.4) For constant light f, the electron current
is proportional to light intensity.

Answer: 4The classical interpretation cannot explain the other three answers, whereas the quantum interpretation explains all of them.

Conceptual Quiz:Light of a given wavelength is used to illuminate a metal surface, but no photoelectrons are emitted. In order to cause electrons to be ejected you should
1) use light of a longer wavelength.2) use light of a shorter wavelength.3) increase the intensity of the original
wavelength.4) decrease the intensity of the original
wavelength.

Answer: 2
You need a photon with higher energy, which means a photon with higher frequency, but lower wavelength.

Answer: 4Look at equation for momentum along x- and y-directions. If φ = 0, then θ = 00 or 1800 to conserve momentum along y-direction. We must have λ < λ’to conserve energy. The scattered photon must move backwards (1800) to conserve momentum and energy.
