Answer:

the energy of the photons is greater than the work function of the zinc oxide.

h f> = Ф

Step-by-step explanation:

In this experiment on the photoelectric effect, it is explained by the Einstein relation that considers the light beam formed by discrete energy packages.

K_max = h f - Ф

in the exercise phase, they indicate that different wavelengths can inject electrons, so the energy of the photons is greater than the work function of the zinc oxide.

h f > = Ф
