Please help with these three questions.


The electrons in the diagram have slowed to a stop and have just started their return to the left plate. What is the best estimate of the energy these electrons had when they were emitted?

A0.5 eV
B0.9 eV
C1.1 eV
D2.0 eV

What is the effect of doubling the intensity of light on whether electrons will be emitted from a metal?

AThe more intense light is more likely to cause electrons to be emitted than the weaker light.
BThe more intense light will cause electrons to be emitted with faster velocities than the weaker light.
CThe less intense light must shine for a longer time to cause electrons to be emitted.
DLight intensity has no effect on whether electrons are emitted or not.

A physicist is asked to analyze two mystery metals. Each metal is struck by light with three different wavelengths: 300 nm, 400 nm, and 500 nm. In each case, the physicist adjusts the voltage gradient to determine the energies of the emitted electrons. The results are shown in the chart below. What are the values of X and Y?

AX=1.9eV,Y=0.2eV
BX=2.1eV,Y cannot be determined
CX=2.1eV,Y=0.2eV
DX=1.9eV,Y cannot be determined

Verified Answer :

B0.9 
D.Light intensity has no effect on whether electrons are emitted or not. 
and
A. X=1.9eV,Y=0.2eV 

I already took the gizmo so I know these are right. The first one I got wrong b/c there was no graph and the last one I didn't understand. Basically for the last one you calculate the work function for the metals and find their difference.

Hope this helps.
