1. What si the energy, in eV of a 400 nm photon? (number only)
2. Explain how the concepts of work function and threshold frequency are related.  
3. What is the threshold frequency for cadmium? See page 712, table 14.1
4. Will a 500 nm photon cause the emission of an electron from a cesium metal surface?  Explain why or why not.
5. What stopping voltage is needed to stop an electron of kinetic energy 1.25 eV? (number only)
6. Explain how stopping potential is related to the max kinetic energy of an electron.
7. True or false: the greater the intensity of the light hitting a metal surfacem, the greater the stopping potential required to stop photoelectrons.  Explain your answer.
9. After completing question 8 on your own, give the value of the slope of the graph that you just drew.  What is the significance of this value/
10. What metal do you think was used in the previous example?  Justify your answer.
12. In several paragraphs, identify three common devices that use the photoelectric effect.  Be sure to explain in what way these devices use the photoelectric effect.
