So if we think about the work function for zinc, and the work function for zinc is 6.9 times 10 to the -19 joules, do we expect that when we shine our UV light on the zinc, we'll be able to eject electrons?

如果我们考虑锌的功函数,它是6，9乘以10的-19次方焦耳，我们是否可以预测当,用紫外灯照射锌时，我们可以射出电子呢？

So, if you use a black lamp or something and you excite something up to a higher energy level and then it relaxes back down to its lower energy state, it's going to emit a new wavelength of light, which is going to be visible to you.

如果你用一个紫外灯或别的,东西把某种分子激发到,更高的能级，然后它会掉回,到低能级，它就会释放,一个新的波长的光,这个光是可见的。
