The terminology of different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum is given in the text. Use the formula E = hv (for energy of a quantum of radiation: photon) and obtain the photon energy in units of eV for different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. In what way are the different scales of photon energies that you obtain related to the sources of electromagnetic radiation?

In the explanation of photoelectric effect, we assume one photon of frequency v collidies with an electron and transfers 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?
