Question

The greater the work function for a metal,

Question 14 options:

A)

the greater the speed of the ejected electron

B)

the smaller the speed of the ejected electron

C)

the more electrons are ejected

D)

the lower the threshold frequency

E)

none of the above

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot]

E) none of the above. The work function of a metal is the minimum energy required to remove an electron from the surface of the metal. It does not directly affect the speed of the ejected electron or the number of electrons ejected, and it is not related to the threshold frequency.
