The photoelectric effect and the wave model

Interactive lesson
The photoelectric effect
Interactive lesson
Intensity is energy per second
Interactive lesson
A minimum frequency to eject electrons
Interactive lesson
Above the minimum, ejection is instant
Interactive lesson
Threshold frequency
Interactive lesson
Intensity sets how many electrons
Interactive lesson
Frequency sets maximum electron energy
Interactive lesson
What the wave model predicts
Interactive lesson
The threshold breaks the wave model
Interactive lesson
Instant ejection breaks the wave model
