16. According to Einstein, when a photon of incident light strikes on a bound electron of 
metal, its energy is used in two ways.  
(i) In overcoming work function of metal to free metallic electron. 
(ii) In imparting kinetic energy to this freed electron.

Since the air is replaced by another dielectric medium of dielectric constant 10 without 
disconnecting the capacitor from d. c. source. Hence, potential difference between the 
plates of capacitor remains unchanged. Consequently, electric field between the plates (
