Answer the following questions: (a) Quarks inside protons and neutrons are thought to carryfractional charges [(+2/3)e , (–1/3)e]. Why do they not show up in Millikan’s oil-drop experiment?

Why is there an energy distribution of photoelectrons? (e) The energy and momentum of an electron are related to the frequency and wavelength of the associated matter wave by the relations: E = h ν, p = lambda/h But while the value of lambda is physically significant, the value of ν (and therefore, the value of the phase speed ν lambda ) has no physical significance. Why?
