Photoelectric Effect (Planck's Constant) Summary
Data & Results
The notebook entry for this lab is located here. We generated two Excel files for this lab as well: Planck.xlsx and First Order.xlsx.
We measured two different things in this lab related to the photoelectric effect, but only one of these has an accepted value - Planck's Constant. This value is
[math]\displaystyle{ h_{acc} = 6.626\,068\,96(33) \times 10^{-34}~\mathrm{J}\cdot\mathrm{s} = 4.135\,667\,33(10) \times 10^{-15}~\mathrm{eV}\cdot\mathrm{s} }[/math]
We came up with many different value for Planck's constant. We obtained two from the first order maxima from the light source, each being a separate run through the colors:
[math]\displaystyle{ h^{1}_{first order} = (6.911 \pm .087) \cdot 10^{-34}~\mathrm{J}\cdot\mathrm{s} = }[/math]
