Answer» Find the MAXIMUM Kinetic ENERGY of a Photoelectron ... This value is the maximum possible kinetic energy of the photoelectron. The equation, which Einstein DETERMINED, says (electron's maximum kinetic energy) = (energy of the incident LIGHT energy packet) MINUS (the work function). For the example, the electron's maximum kinetic energy is: 2.99 eV - 2.75 eV = 0.24 eV. |
