Q.
A student is attempting to maximize the number of electrons ejected from a metal surface by shining light on the surface. The student will use a laser tuned to a frequency that will eject electrons from metal. The laser has two dials that can adjust specific settings. One dial controls the amplitude of the light while the other dial controls the wavelength of light. Based on the information, which of the following changes would have the greatest impact in increasing the number of electrons ejected?
