(i) In the explanations of photoelectric effect, we assume one photon of frequency v collides with an electron and transfer its energy. This leads to the equation for the maximum energy E_(max) of the emitted electron as E_(max)=hv-phi_(0) Where phi_(0) is the work function of the metal. if an electron absorbs 2 photons (each of frequency v) what will be the maximum energy for the emitted electron? (ii) Why is this fact (two photon absorption) not taken into consideration in our discussion of the stopping potential?
