About This Product
The apparatus relates the energy of emitted electrons to the wavelength of the incident light from each LED, and Planck's constant can then be calculated approximately using the Planck-Einstein relation. Supplied as a Planck constant experiment kit, it also supports exploring basic quantum mechanics, with notes that explain the theory alongside the experimental methods.
