    Photoelectric effect and blue light

    but since (KE)max decreases, doesn't it mean that the current decreases?

    Photoelectric effect and blue light

    Homework Statement Photoelectric effect A beam of blue light falls on the cathode of a photocell so that electrons are emitted. The blue beam is then replaced by a yellow one with the same intensity and electrons are also emitted. What would happen to each of the following physical...

    Circuit with capacitors in series and parallel

    I tried redrawing and saw that C35, C4 and C2 are connected parallel ; C6 and C1 are connected parallel . Then I combined them and C2345= 6mF C16= 6mF So the answer is 1/Ceq=1/6+1/6 Ceq=3mF?
