    The document provides instructions for an experiment to investigate how the depth of water affects the photoelectric effect. Materials include an electroscope, a light source, and a container of water that cannot be made of glass. The method will involve varying the depth of water and measuring the time taken for the electroscope leaf to fall after being illuminated at different angles. A graph will be plotted of depth versus time. Precautions must be taken to eliminate other light sources and avoid using glass. The conclusion will analyze any relationship between water depth and the rate of deflection measured.

    PHOTOELECTRICITY

    Hypothesis: Brief explanation of the photoelectric effect. Explain how water could
    cause refraction of light and possibly affect the photoelectric effect.

    Aim: (Second paragraph, first sentence on handout)

    Materials & Apparatus: Some on the handout. NB: the container holding the water can’t be made
    of glass

    Diagram NB: Depth doesn’t mean that the water has to be above the electroscope

    Method: Wunna want me give y’all everything? Things to consider:


    • how the electroscope is charged and with what charge. (It on the
    diagram)
    • starting angle for the gold leaf
    • how the depth is varied

    Expected Results: Time for leaf to fall/s


    Depth/m Angle/o
    t1 t2 tavg

    Treatment of Results: What graph will be plotted? If any?

    Variables: Controlled: which parameters of the light source are being controlled?

    Manipulated/independent:

    Repsonding/Dependent:

    Precautions: How are other light sources eliminated


    Why can’t you use glass containers

    Sources of Error: Again, wunna want me give y’all everything?

    Conclusion: Explain any possiblet relationship between depth and rate of deflection
