(I) An HCl molecule vibrates with a natural frequency of 8.1  1013 Hz. What is the difference
in energy (in joules and electron volts) between possible values of the oscillation energy?
7. Because the energy is quantized, E = nhf, the difference in energy between adjacent levels is
E  hf   6.63  1034 J s 8.1  1013Hz   5.4  1020 J  0.34eV.

wavelength is less than 570 nm. (a) What is the work function of this material? (b) What is the
stopping voltage required if light of wavelength 400 nm is used?
20. (a) At the threshold wavelength, the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is zero, so we have

(b) The stopping voltage is the voltage that gives a potential energy change equal to the
maximum
