Earlier attempts at non-ICE vehicles were faced with many challenges resulting in abandonment of research and development. General Motors (GM) discontinued the EV1 electric vehicle after investing about $1 billion in the development. The Toyota RAV 4-EV‚ which was popular among environmentalist‚ was discontinued based on sales not high enough to justify production

of an electrode due to the photoelectric effect as a function of the incident light’s frequency was measured. Using the PASCO AP-8209 Photoelectric Effect Apparatus‚ an experimental value for Planck’s constant h was determined: (4.27 0.0576) x 10-15 eV-s‚ 2.26σ from the theoretical value. This discrepancy is within the expected accuracy of the apparatus and several possible errors have been taken into account. The hypothesis that ejected electron energy is independent of the intensity of the incident
