Maxwell (1873), proposed that visible light consists of electromagnetic waves.

Electromagnetic radiation is the emission and transmission of in the form of Speed of light (c) in vacuum = 3.00 x 108 m/s electromagnetic

If light is not composed of particles, then increasing the intensity of light (even of low frequency) should be able to eject an electron.

But it was observed that ejected are dependent on the frequency of the light and not the intensity. Above a certain frequency (called the threshold frequency), as the intensity increases, the number of electron ejected increases.

Figure 7.4, p. 218 7.2 Photoelectric Effect

When the has a frequency ≥ the energy holding the electron in the (the ), the electron is ejected. Any additional energy of the photon (above this) can be given to the electron:

Ephoton = BE + KE

KE(ejected electron) = Ephoton –BE (or W)
