Planks Constant Experiment
Purpose:
To find an essentially simple, straightforward method for deriving Plancks
constant using a device that we can build.
This device has to be build easily. It should be durable and feasible.
The results yielded should give an accurate value for Plancks constant.
This method, depending on the results, can then be used in an entry level
physics lab, such as that of a high school physics lab.
Procedure:
1) Make sure that POWER switch is turned off.
2) Remove the diffusion filter.
3) Connect the DC voltmeter and microammeter to the corresponding terminals
respectively.
4) Set the GAIN SWITCH to HIGH.
5) Attach the shielding cover.
6) Set the LED SELECT switches to COLOR and OFF respectively.
7) Turn on the POWER switch.
8) While setting the anode voltage to the full scale on the minus side, adjust the
zero point of miocroammeter.
9) Select the LED of the desired wavelength (colour) adjust the VOLTAGE
trimmer to increase the anode voltage gradually, and read the photoelectric
current at that time.
10)Change the wavelength (colour) of the LED and record the anode voltage
photoelectric current characteristics at each time.
Determining the stopping voltage
1) Determine the stopping voltage at each wavelength.

Q.1. Define Photoelectric effect?
Ans: When light falls on metal surface, an electron is emitted from a metal if the
energy of the photon is greater than the work function of the metal.
Q.2 what is Reverse Photoelectric effect?
Ans: If an electron of sufficient voltage is passed across a material then a photon is
emitted whose energy is equivalent to the work function of that material. The voltage
at which this effect observed is the turn on voltage. In case of LED reverse
photoelectric effect works.
Q.3 Can we observe reverses photoelectric with Metal surface?
Ans: This effect is not normally observed in metals and other typical substances
because the photons emitted are usually outside the range of visible light, usually
somewhere in the infrared Range.

Experiment #3:
Frank Hertz Experiment
Principle:
Electrons are accelerated in a tube filled with neon vapour. The excitation energy of
neon is determined from the distance between the equidistant minima of the electron
current in a variable opposing electric field.
Tasks:
Record the counter current strength I in a Franck-Hertz tube as a function of the
anode voltage U.
2. Determine the excitation energy E from the positions of the current strength
minima or maxima by difference formation.
Procedure:
1. First take data varying the voltage manually with the toggle switch set to
Man, and dont hook up the oscilloscope. You should begin by familiarizing
yourself with the apparatus, its operation, and the nature of electron emission
from the filament. As you hook up wires, make sure you understand the circuit
through which currents flow by tracing the path of electrons from the filament
through the wires, ammeter, etc.
2. Do not apply voltages with the tube cold, because mercury may have
condensed on the electrodes and could short out and damage parts of the tube.
Start by hooking up the filament current supply and the accelerating voltage.
Connect the ammeter to the anode/collector, and use a jumper wire to short out
the grid anode gap (i.e.,
Vg
measure positive or negative current; for example, set the meter to read centre
zero. Start with

orange glow in the tube. Observe the anode current as you vary the filament
current.
3. With the filament current set to produce a visible orange glow not a bright blue
white glow begin to increase
Va
50 volts. Now, slowly increase the current in the cathode until the ammeter
reads

bring it back up slowly, checking that the ammeter does not go off scale. If it
does, lower the filament and repeat. The filament will respond very slowly to
any changes, so allow at least 30 seconds for it to stabilize before making new
measurements.
5. At this stage, the apparatus is ready for taking measurements. Experience
shows that its best to start at the highest accelerating voltage and take
measurements with decreasing

Va
very
slowly. It may be helpful to change the ammeter scale for lower voltage
readings.

plate capacitor.
The electric constant is to be determined from the relation measured
under point1.
The charge of a plate capacitor is to be measured as a function of the
inverse of the distance between the plates, under constant voltage.

Procedure:
1. Set-up and procedure Measure the light intensity with the thermopile and
amplifier with the equipment at different distances from the light source.
(Note: the maximum output voltage of the amplifier is 10 V). The inlet
aperture marks the position of the thermopile. The distance between the
lamp and the thermopile should be at least 50 cm, since the angular aperture
of the thermopile is only 20.
2. The solar cell measures the diffused light as well as the direct light from the
lamp. As the lamp has a slim light cone of approx. 30, the diffused light
chiefly arises as a result of reflection from the bench top, and can be
suppressed by covering the bench with a black cloth or piece of black card.
3. The no-load voltage and the short-circuit current of the solar cell depend on
temperature. To record the characteristics in Problems 2 and 5, the solar cell
is therefore kept at room temperature with the aid of a cold air blower.
4. To demonstrate the temperature effect, blow hot air over the solar cell and
measure the temperature directly in front of it with a thermometer. Do not
touch the cell as its thin p-layer can easily be damaged.
5. If the distance between lamp and solar cell exceeds 50 cm, the temperature
rise caused by radiation can be disregarded in comparison with that caused
by the hot air. Measure the no- load voltage and the short-circuit current.
6. The characteristics of the solar cell should be measured in sunlight also if
possible; in this case both direct and diffused light are involved.
7. The thermopile is used again to determine the relationship between the
short-circuit current and the light intensity, al- though it measures only
direct light because of its small angular aperture. For comparative purposes,
therefore, we must support a black cardboard tube about 20 cm long in front

of the solar cell to screen it from the diffused light. It is important that the
thermopile and the solar cell are pointing directly into the sun.

Experiment # 7
Characteristics X-ray of molybdenum
Principle:
Spectra of X-rays from a molybdenum anode are to be analyzed by means of different
mono crystals and the results plotted graphically. The energies of the characteristic
lines are then to be determined from the positions of the glancing angles for the
various orders of diffraction.
Tasks:
1. The intensity of the X-rays emit- ted by the molybdenum anode at maximum anode
voltage and anode current is to be recorded as a function of the Bragg angle, using an
LiF mono crystal as analyzer.
2. Step 1 is to be repeated using the KBr mono crystal as analyzer.
3. The energy values of the characteristic molybdenum lines are to be calculated and
compared with the energy differences of the molybdenum energy terms.
Procedure:
Set up the experiment as shown in Fig. 1. Fix the diaphragm tube with 1 mm diameter
aperture in the X-ray outlet tube. With the X-ray basic unit switched off, connect the
goniometer and the counter tube to the appropriate sockets in the base plate of the
experimenting area. Set the goniometer block with mounted analyzing crystal to the
middle position and the counter tube to the right stop.
The following settings are recommended for the recording of the spectra:
1. Auto and Coupling mode.
2. Gate time 2 s; Angle step width 0.1.
3. Scanning range 4-65 using the LiF monocrystal, and 3-30 using the KBr
monocrystal. Anode voltage

When the spectra are to be recorded with an XY recorder, connect the Y axis to the
analog output (Imp/s) of the X-ray unit and, correspondingly, the X input to the analog
output for the angular position of the crystal (select the analog signal for the crystal
