Air is mainly composed of N2 (78%), O2 (21%) and other trace gases. Now, the total pressure of air is the sum of the partial pressures of the constituent gases. The partial pressure of each gas, for example say O2, can be expressed as:
p(O2) = mole fraction of O2 * P(total, air) ----(1)
Thus, the partial pressure is directly proportional to the total pressure. If we consider a sealed container then, as the temperature of air increases so will its pressure. Based on equation (1) an increase in the pressure of air should also increase the partial pressure of oxygen.
In order to emit electrons, the cesium will have to absorb photons. Each photon will knock out one electron by transferring its energy to the electron. Therefore, by the principle of energy conservation, the energy of the removed electron will be equal to the energy of the incident photon. That energy is calculated using Planck's equation:
E = hf
E = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ * 1 x 10¹⁵
E = 6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules
The electron will have 6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules of kinetic energy
