  2. Photoelectric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoelectric_effect

    The frequency is the threshold frequency for the given material. Above that frequency, the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons as well as the stopping voltage in the experiment V o = h e ( ν − ν o ) {\textstyle V_{o}={\frac {h}{e}}\left(\nu -\nu _{o}\right)} rise linearly with the frequency, and have no dependence on the number of ...

  3. Frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency

    A pendulum with a period of 2.8 s and a frequency of 0.36 Hz. For cyclical phenomena such as oscillations, waves, or for examples of simple harmonic motion, the term frequency is defined as the number of cycles or repetitions per unit of time.

  4. Bandwidth (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_(signal_processing)

    The 3 dB bandwidth of an electronic filter or communication channel is the part of the system's frequency response that lies within 3 dB of the response at its peak, which, in the passband filter case, is typically at or near its center frequency, and in the low-pass filter is at or near its cutoff frequency. If the maximum gain is 0 dB, the 3 ...

  5. Flicker fusion threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_fusion_threshold

    The flicker fusion threshold, also known as critical flicker frequency or flicker fusion rate, is the frequency at which a flickering light appears steady to the average human observer. It is a concept studied in vision science , more specifically in the psychophysics of visual perception .

  6. Threshold voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_voltage

    The threshold voltage, commonly abbreviated as V th or V GS(th), of a field-effect transistor (FET) is the minimum gate-to-source voltage (V GS) that is needed to create a conducting path between the source and drain terminals. It is an important scaling factor to maintain power efficiency.

  7. List of equations in quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    f 0, ν 0 = Threshold frequency (Hz = s −1) Can only be found by experiment. ... Physics for Scientists and Engineers: With Modern Physics (6th ed.). W. H.

  8. Pair production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pair_production

    As energy must be conserved, for pair production to occur, the incoming energy of the photon must be above a threshold of at least the total rest mass energy of the two particles created. (As the electron is the lightest, hence, lowest mass/energy, elementary particle, it requires the least energetic photons of all possible pair-production ...

  9. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    In physics, the average power of an AC signal is defined as the average value of voltage times current; for resistive (non-reactive) circuits, where voltage and current are in phase, this is equivalent to the product of the rms voltage and current:
