Einstein explained the photoelectric effect by proposing that light is transmitted, not in the form of continuous waves, but in the form of many tiny, discrete packets of energy called _______________

Answer 1

Answer:

Photons.

Explanation:

Einstein explained the photoelectric effect by proposing that light is transmitted, not in the form of continuous waves, but in the form of many tiny, discrete packets of energy called photons. Photons are massless and  chargeless particle. The energy of a photon is given by :

$E=hf$

f is the frequency of photon.
