PHY 104 Photo Electric Emission Objective Question

Question

How is Planck's constant (h) related to the reduced Planck's constant (ħ), also known as h-bar?
Options
A ħ = h * 2π
B ħ = h / π
C ħ = h / 2π
Correct Answer
D ħ = h + 2π
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Page 15, under 'Also commonly write these as', shows 'h = hbar 2π', which can be rearranged to ħ = h / 2π.

Hint

Look at the relations involving 'h' and 'ħ' in the 'SUMMARY OF PHOTON PROPERTIES' on page 15.
