Answer:

Explanation:

Photoelectric effect was discovered in 1887 by Heinrich Rudolf Hertz. It refers to the ejection or emission of electrons when light hits a material (generally metal). Emitted electrons are called photo-electrons but the intensity of the light determine the kinetic energy of emitted electron.

Intensity of light is directly proportional to the kinetic energy emitted by an electron, that means more intensity the light have more will be the kinetic energy emitted by an electron.

Which of the following best defines the internal energy of a system?
Anarel [89]
 <span>In thermodynamics, the internal energy of a thermodynamic system, or a body with well-defined boundaries, denoted by U, or sometimes E, is the total of the kinetic energy due to the motion of molecules (translational, rotational, vibrational) and the potential energy associated with the vibrational and electric energy of atoms within molecules or crystals. It includes the energy in all the chemical bonds, and the energy of the free, conduction electrons in metals.</span>
