Electromagnetic Waves of wavelength 2.5*10-7 m are incident on the surface of a metal whose work function is 2.8*10-19 J.
a) Calculate the energy of a single photon.
b) Calculate the maximum kinetic energy of electrons released from the metal
c) Determine the maximum speed of emitted photoelectrons.
It seems everything is dependent on part a being correct, the answers at the back say a) Is 8.3*10-19 but when I used E=hf and f=C/wavelength I got 1.04975*10-18 as the answer which is high so I decided to subtract the work function from it but then it became 7.9675*10-19 which is less than the answer, did the textbook round of as it go, what did I do wrong?
