Concerning the photoelectric effect, which of the following is not true? *
For most metals, ultraviolet light is needed for the photoelectric effect to occur.
Because a faint light contains very little energy, it takes as few minutes before
electrons are emitted from the metal it is shining upon.
O A bright light causes more electrons to be emitted than a faint light
O Higher frequency light emits electrons with higher kinetic energies.
