The results of these studies turned out to be contrary to the management theories of the times but were important in creating an understanding of motivation factors in workers.

Quantum physics: The photoelectric effect What is the photoelectric effect? The photoelectric effect is when a clean metal surface emits electrons after light‚ especially ultraviolet‚ has been shone on at it. This happens because of a process called photoelectric emission whereby a single photon package of electromagnetic energy‚ called a quantum‚ is absorbed by metal surfaces. This energy is then transferred to one single electron which can then be released by the metal and that released electron
