AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between energy, work function, and number of photons. The total energy \( W \) can be expressed in terms of the number of photons \( N \) and the energy of each photon. The energy of a photon is given by the formula: \[ E = h \nu \] where \( h \) is Planck's constant and \( \nu \) is the frequency of the light. The total energy can also be expressed as: ...
