    Topic-11 Dawns of Modern Physics

    Uploaded by

    Hamza Faryad
    These documents contain multiple choice questions and solutions about photons and the photoelectric effect. The questions cover topics like the momentum and velocity of photons, photon emission from radio transmitters, the kinetic energy of photoelectrons, and Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect. The solutions demonstrate that for photons, momentum is proportional to frequency or inversely proportional to wavelength, and that the photoelectric effect provides evidence for the particulate nature of light and Einstein's equation relating photon energy to frequency.
