Consider one of the curves in Figure. Suppose the intensity of the incident light is held fixed but its frequency is increased. Does the stopping potential in Figure (a) remain fixed, (b) move to the right, or (c) move to the left?
Compton effect
The incoming photons' energy must be in the range of an X-ray frequency to generate the Compton effect. The electron does not lose enough energy that reduces the wavelength of scattered photons towards the visible spectrum. As a result, with visible lights, the Compton effect is missing.
Recoil Velocity
The amount of backward thrust or force experienced by a person when he/she shoots a gun in the forward direction is called recoil velocity. This phenomenon always follows the law of conservation of linear momentum.
