This apparatus uses the conventional method of determining Planck\u2019s Constant. The metal plate in the photodiode is illuminated with various frequencies of light, selected from a mercury lamp using filters. The voltage is then adjusted to stop the photoelectric current. The stopping voltage is plotted vs. the frequency, and Planck\u2019s Constant is determined from the slope of the graph.<\/p>\n<p>The concept that the stopping voltage does not change with light intensity is tested using the various apertures that change the light intensity by partially blocking the light.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use the 850 Universal Interface and PASCO Capstone to collect and analyze data.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both the picoammeter and the power supply for the stopping voltage have sensor ports on the front that connect to the analog sensor ports of the 850 Universal Interface. PASCO Capstone automatically recognizes these instruments and can read the current and the voltage. During the experiment, each time a different filter is applied, the user clicks \u201cKeep\u201d in PASCO Capstone and the value of the stopping voltage for that frequency is recorded and automatically graphed vs. frequency.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-12 mb-2\">\n<h4 class=\"h2\">Concepts<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"condensed \">\n<li>Connects to the 850 Universal Interface for data collection in PASCO Capstone<\/li>\n<li>Find Planck\u2019s Constant to within 5%<\/li>\n<li>Verify that stopping voltage is independent of intensity<\/li>\n<li>Find characteristics of the photodiode<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"h2\">What&#8217;s Included<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"condensed product-detail-included mb-0\">\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-apparatus\/fundamental-constants\/se-6614\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Basic Photoelectric Effect Apparatus (SE-6614)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-apparatus\/instrumentation\/power-supplies\/se-6621\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DC Current Amplifier (SE-6621)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-apparatus\/instrumentation\/power-supplies\/se-6615\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DC Power Supply I (Constant Voltage) (SE-6615)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\">Cables for 850 Interface<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Product Experiments<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/file_downloads\/Downloads_EX_Exper\/EX-5549A-Photoelectric-Effect.zip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photoelectric Effect Experiment<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Complete photoelectric effect experiment includes experiment files and the photoelectric effect system; complete solution designed for use with PASCO Capstone Software.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2511,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[111,39],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-2517","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-engineering-physics","product_cat-institute-university","pa_brand-pasco-scientific-eesti-en","first","onbackorder","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2517","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2517"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2517\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=2517"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=2517"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ste.education\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=2517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
