Answer
- There exists a threshold frequency below which no photoelectron is ejected.
- KE of electron depends linearly on frequency and is independent of intensity of radiation.

Two bar magnets are placed close to each other with their opposite poles facing each other. In absence of other force the magnets are pulled towards each other and their kinetic energy increases. Does it contradict our earher knowledge that magnetic forces cannot do any work and hence cannot increase kinetic energy of a system?
A constant volume thermometer registers a pressure of 1.500 × 104Pa at the triple point of water and a pressure of 2.050 × 104Pa at the normal boiling point. What is the temperature at the normal boiling point?
Answer the following question:
The energy and momentum of an electron are related to the frequency and wavelength of the associated matter wave by the relations:
$\text{E}=\text{h v, p}=\frac{\text{h}}{\lambda}$
But while the value of λ is physically significant, the value of ν (and therefore, the value of the phase speed ν λ) has no physical significance. Why?
